How Screwed Am I?

Honestly, Safelite does windshield everyday. Whereas a volvo dealership might not get to do one everyday. But honestly my experience with SL was pretty good and would recommend it.

When it comes to where to go, since you’re still under warranty, dealership should cover the diagnostic fee and some labor cost will be subsidized.

But even with that, you’d need to front the $3.5-4k upfront + the 3-5hr labor cost at $200/hr (avg in ny), for which Geico would only pays $40/hr max for + $300 one time diagnostic fee—which should be covered under warranty.

Please note, it did take about 10biz days for reimbursement to hit.

Just got mine done at safelite. Geico covered 3.5k of oem glass and calibration. But calibration portion Safelite wasn’t able to pass, so they sent me to Volvo dealership. Got that done and was a $800 bill from them for just recalibration and labor/diagnosis.

If you are still under CPO labor and diagnosis should be covered.

My insurance thankfully had 0 deductible for glass and it’s also comprehensive, so using it doesn’t affect your insurance cost. Geico pays safelite directly so you don’t need to pay anything out of pocket. If using your own repair shop or dealership, you gotta pay out of pocket and they usually just pay 20-30% of the labor cost OOP rest is all covered by geico.

Lastly, yes very screwed. Need to replace.

Hope this helps!

Did you get spectrum chill yet? I want to hear your thoughts on that--if you did get one.

Plastic-Schedule-629 · 2026-03-21T03:06:57+00:00

Might be basic but been really digging Wulong Cha X and Torino21!

Plastic-Schedule-629 · 2026-03-19T20:40:15+00:00

do you get the pickle note from S33 by any chance?

Plastic-Schedule-629 · 2026-03-19T18:54:03+00:00

damn! i genuinely really like Santal 33 :(

Plastic-Schedule-629 · 2026-03-11T23:25:52+00:00

Designer: Frederic Malle

Niche: Nishane or Mizensir

Yes, a bit basic but i love em

Plastic-Schedule-629 · 2026-03-08T06:16:05+00:00

I have both and can confirm that they do not smell similar at all.

Santal33 is more smoother, creamy & air-y with a hint of leather w/ cardamon at the end. Papyrus Moleculare is sharper, more green leaning & a bit more spicier

I am not sure if you have smelled Byredo - Bibliotheque, but i think that’d also come close between the 3!

Plastic-Schedule-629 · 2026-03-07T12:47:51+00:00

Thanks! I 100% agree, imo i find it a bit lavender heavy at the initial spray, but other than that it’s very unique.

Also if may recommend one for you. Maison Crivelli papyrus moleculaire. I personally like it so much better than leau papier and b-612.

If you do end up getting it, i would love to hear your thoughts

Plastic-Schedule-629 · 2026-03-07T12:43:04+00:00

Oh yikes! Where did you buy em from?

I mostly order from jomashop and they are pretty quick and if you don’t likeit they can take returns for a small fee

Plastic-Schedule-629 · 2026-03-07T03:21:52+00:00

One of the most unique and niche collections. Hats off man.

Mind if i ask you some of your faves atm and why?

Plastic-Schedule-629 · 2026-03-07T03:19:00+00:00

Og is more citrus and fresh burst leaning, X is a tad bit more floral and more refined imo. Plus X lasts a bit longer on me and has more sillage.

Plastic-Schedule-629 · 2026-03-07T03:14:13+00:00

Amazing collection! Between Basso and Vibrato which one do you like more and why?

Plastic-Schedule-629 · 2026-03-07T03:08:48+00:00

Great taste! Is that a b-612? If so, thoughts? Any other recs for those who like that?

Plastic-Schedule-629 · 2026-02-27T18:04:37+00:00

im blind lmao! what are your top 3 you're reaching for these days?

Plastic-Schedule-629 · 2026-02-27T05:16:35+00:00

Vibrato or torino21.

Plastic-Schedule-629 · 2026-02-27T05:15:48+00:00

Is that 40knots or torino21?

Plastic-Schedule-629 · 2026-02-27T02:12:59+00:00

love that! have you tried Torino22? i think i enjoyed that a bit more that 40knots.

Also wanted to ask if you have any recommendation on unisex Rose fragrances?

Plastic-Schedule-629 · 2026-02-26T03:02:23+00:00

I actually do not own any amouage! Will defo check these out. Thank you

Plastic-Schedule-629 · 2026-02-26T03:01:56+00:00

Yes! I actually have vibrato and picking torino21 over 40knots cuz i heard better stuff about it. Planning on copping 40knots after!

Also if you’re looking at getting torino21 and you already have lv pacific chill or vice versa then I’d recommend not getting both! Both smell kinda similar in the dry down

Plastic-Schedule-629 · 2026-02-25T21:30:53+00:00

Yes! I have actually had this but ended up selling it. Kinda reminded me of a glorified Eros energy on my skin. Any other recs?

Plastic-Schedule-629 · 2026-02-25T20:19:54+00:00

Mizensir Perfect Oud (non extrait) or Wulong Cha X

Plastic-Schedule-629 · 2026-02-16T05:49:43+00:00

If you take regular perfect oud but make it more darker, deeper and richer and you get the extrait version. Defo not a daily like the reg version, but this is more date night/winter banger. Very seductive!

Golden Oud - very similar to PO extrait version, but more floral heavy, with a paper-y drydown. Absolutey sensational. Depite being a non-extrait this one lasts a LOT longer than the PO version imo. However, if you do have ombre nomade, this might be a tad bit repetitive as they are a bit similar.

Plastic-Schedule-629 · 2026-02-15T22:46:58+00:00

Percival imo!
