Windshield Replacement for the 1995-1997 Ferrari F50
Working on a 1995-1997 Ferrari F50 is a completely different ballgame than swapping the glass on a standard commuter car. This is a rare, open-top supercar built around a Formula 1-style carbon fiber tub. The windshield frame is an integral part of the car's aerodynamics and structural integrity. A cracked windshield on an F50 means you need a technician who actually understands high-end exotics and respects the engineering behind them. At AlexWindshield, we handle these legendary machines with the exact precision they demand.

We provide fully equipped mobile auto glass services across the Greater Toronto Area (GTA). Whether your collection is located in Vaughan, Richmond Hill, or Markham, we show up ready to work on your schedule.
How We Replace the F50 Windshield
Replacing the glass on a mid-90s Ferrari requires patience, a steady hand, and the right materials. We don't rush this. Here is exactly how I tackle the job:
- Protecting the Interior and Paint: Before a single tool comes out of my truck, I cover the carbon fiber dash, the hood, and the fenders with heavy-duty protective blankets. A single scratch on a car like this is unacceptable.
- Precision Glass Removal: I use a specialized wire-cutting system to slice through the old factory urethane. Traditional prying tools can easily damage the delicate pinch weld and surrounding composite materials, so we rely on slow, controlled wire cuts to lift the old glass out safely.
- Surface Cleaning and Prep: Once the old windshield is out, I carefully trim back the remaining adhesive to about one millimeter thick. Then, I clean the entire channel with a dedicated solvent to strip away years of dirt, grease, and old residue.
- Primer Application: Any bare spots on the pinch weld get a thorough coat of high-grade urethane primer. This step stops rust dead in its tracks and ensures the new adhesive actually bites into the frame for a permanent hold.
- Setting the New Glass: I apply a thick, continuous V-bead of premium, fast-curing urethane adhesive. Using heavy-duty suction cups and a second technician for perfect alignment, we drop the new F50 windshield exactly into place without smearing the glue.
