Just noticed the same thing on the wife's Proton while waxing this weekend. Initial estimate was $1100.00 IF the windshield is not broken during removal ( that would add $900 for replacement ). Did you have yours repaired, and if yes, how much?

Super VXer
Havent done it yet, man that pisses me off cause the rest of the VX is perfect, no rust. Its just that water sits up there in the seal.
How much painting is involved in that estimate? I was going to have them obviously fix the resuted areas under the seal, and then paint back 6 inches or so and blend it before it reaches the roof rack rails. And easily stop at the sides at the gutter jam.

Going to get it done right, but expensive. The windshield, headliner to remove the roof rails, spoiler, as well as the antenna mast are all getting pulled to paint the entire roof. 22 hours of labor, should be in the shop for 5 days, goona drop it off on Monday 11/27/2006.
