Congrats on the car though, reminds of the time when I was in high school, my civic just came out of the bodyshop and I was driving on the freeway and BAM! I hit those rogue torn up tires on the freeway and messed up my new body kit.

My buddy just bought an F355. Flew out, drove it home, and notices a crack in the windshield. Gets estimate - $3500 to replace. Calls seller to see if it was cracked beforehand, comments on high price of replacement - seller says "if $3500 scares you, maybe Ferrari is not for you".
BTW - it took like 5 weeks just to get the windshield replaced at the dealer.

Here in Los Angeles, California (605-gravel FWY) I once had my 2003 350Z front windshield chipped by a gravel truck. Got the number off the plates and called the gravel company. They replaced my windshield for my inconvience. Only drawback was I had to take it to their sponsored window shop. I know it's too late for this but it's nice to know..Good luck..
