<< < (3/3)

SteveS:
well atm it catchs the sun like a ***, its on the passenger side, so not in my direct view but with the sun catching it its noticeable.

vRS Carl:
Hit it with a hammer (not too hard) to put a "stone chip" in it.

Claim on your insurance and pay £50 excess.

Probably cheaper in the long run

..........correct.If the scratch is too deep & you polish it out the area polished will go ''wavy'' & will no longer be totally clear.
Used to work with glass years ago.  :happy2:
