Huge rock left round chip on my windshield today....

I was coming home from work today and a huge rock hit the upper part of my windshield today and chipped the glass. I saw the rock coming and it was like in slow motion moving through the air. At first I was pissed but then I thought if this thing hit my grill, hood, or headlights it would have caused some severe damage. I got a few quotes and all told me that it would cost $100 to repair which I think is cheap considering what a new grill or camera would cost if the rock hit it so I feel lucky. They guaranteed me that I would not see the damaged glass inside or outside once repaired. Has anyone ever had chipped windshield glass repaired? How does it look after? My damage is right where the blue window tint on top is. Will there be a spot where the chip is after the repair? Also I plan to have the repair done on Thursday. How long does it take for the glass to begin to spider web? I will put about 140 miles on the car until Thursday. Will it be ok?
