So this is weird. Parked last night, nothing. Came out this morning to this. 15 years old and original windshield was perfect and now 1 week after supercharger install. No chips or impacts. Seems like a weird coincident. I've been stomping on the skinny pedal pretty good, can torque do that?

YEP!!!! Ready for the scrap yard. I will give you $500 for it. LOL
On the serious side.... It is possible I guess. I would think on a full frame not as likely... It is a odd coincidence...

Guess it could be a stress fracture from all that HP. Keep us posted if it does it again when you have the windshield replace! Maybe do a poll on who thinks the windshield will go again or if the block will window first. Just kidding!

Thank you. Mine are way worse. Mine might have already been refinished before I bought it also. I’d be interested in seeing the non Raptor refinished ones too.View attachment 486499
I recently rebuild mine with the eBay lenses. The clips didn’t line up but I was able to make them work. White paint to match the truck, bronze to match the wheels and etched my business logo in the projector lense.

I recommend you do a little write up in the Gen Juan lighting section. I would like to know how hard this is. I am sure I am not the only one who would like to know.

Ha i emailed an ebay seller of these awhile back and they said they wont fit the projector ones and they didnt say why. Im guessing its the clips.

Glad to hear they can be fitted though.

You’re going to break most of the clips taking them apart anyway. I just went into it prepared to buy new lights if it didn’t go well.:) here’s a screenshot of the lenses I got.
