with Visteon Corporation's (NYSE:VC) Aftermarket Operations

install NASCAR(R) Performance Windshields by Visteon and other auto

celebrate the alliance, Magic Glass and Visteon are teaming up on
Thursday, August 5, 2004 to support the Dodge "Racers On The
Circle" event, which precedes the NASCAR NEXTEL Cup Series(TM)
Brickyard 400 at Indianapolis Motor Speedway on August 8, 2004.
Visteon is entering the NASCAR NEXTEL Cup Series by sponsoring the
Evernham Motorsports No. 91 Visteon Dodge driven by Bill Elliott at
the Brickyard 400. During the "Racers On The Circle" event, Bill
Elliot will sign autographs. Magic Glass and Visteon will display
the Evernham Motorsports Special Edition Dodge Hemi with the NASCAR
Performance Windshield by Visteon, provided by Elk Automotive. The
Visteon GlassVantage network is comprised of auto glass replacement
professionals that offer Visteon custom auto glass products in an
assigned geographic territory. In addition to the new NASCAR
Performance Windshields by Visteon for cars and light trucks,
network members also carry the new GlideMaster(TM) Gliding Rear
Window for light trucks, and Carlite(R) brand original equipment
replacement auto glass. NASCAR Performance Windshields by Visteon
are original equipment quality, and feature a checkered flag motif
across the top with the NASCAR brand logo in the center. Unlike
decals that fade and fall off, the sporty looking design is a
permanently bonded part of the windshield. The GlideMaster Gliding
Rear Window for light trucks offers a sleek, smooth expanse of
frameless, flush-mounted tinted glass in place of the awkward look
of typical sliders. The semi-flush gliding center panel can be
customized with available team or sport logos. "GlassVantage
network members like Magic Glass, are selected based on their
ability to sell and market innovative auto glass products to the
public," said Roy Drake, business director, Visteon Aftermarket
Replacement Glass. "By taking what is already a very good Visteon
glass product, and adding the NASCAR design and licensing, we're
creating a unique opportunity for people to customize their car or
truck." According to Bob Smith, co-owner of Magic Glass, "We view
this agreement with Visteon as an opportunity to offer our
customers and everyone who loves NASCAR racing a very special auto
glass product not found anywhere else -- and we plan to have a lot
of fun with it. The GlideMaster product also is unique and we
expect to sell a lot of them to pickup truck owners." Visteon
Corporation is a leading full-service supplier that delivers
consumer-driven technology solutions to automotive manufacturers
worldwide and through multiple channels within the global
automotive aftermarket. Visteon has approximately 72,000 employees
and a global delivery system of more than 200 technical,
