I'm not sure what the cost of a chip repair is but may be worth the $100 to get a new one if your policy is the same as mine.

How good a job did novus do? Mine was replaced by Novus a few years ago and it was a completely sh*thouse job. Can see the adhesive from the inside of the car where they put too much on, and they broke the clips on the trim running up the side of the windscreen over the roof, and didnt stick the clips under the windwscreen properly so it does sit quite right on the glass or roof
