In my experience, the standard glass windscreen bodgers scratch everything to **** and you won't see the rust until it eats away, from underneath the windscreen rubber, a year or two (if you're lucky?) later.

When I bought my 540 this happened to me (alas the rust only appeared a short time after I'd bought the car). Next time, if it's not got BMW glass then I'll run away.
I had a new windscreen in my old 535 fitted by autoglass and it leaked if I got it jet washed and I could hear the wind through the gap on the motorway. Autoglass replaced with a new one for free, I never had any problems after that.
