It is cheaper to just pay a $100 deductible and get a new OEM windshield rather.
Personally, I tinted my windshield for aesthetics and I had LASIK so I'm very sensitive to the Sun. Being that the tint is on the inside of the windshield like all other tint, it offers no protection to the outside of it whatsoever. I have my Alpine White truck PPF for almost a year and have zero shade of yellow, although it does happen depending on the quality of the Film being used. The window tint will definitely not turn yellow.
