Title: Annoying scratch on rear side window..best way to fix?
Post by: wisebuddah on October 02, 2011, 09:19:21 am

So I've noticed a rather annoying scratch on my driver's side rear window..it looks like it might have been caused by a tree branch. Anyway, it's annoying me  :fighting:

Any thoughts as to how I can get rid of it? I can't feel the scratch so it's clearly not deep, can I fix myself or do I need to get someone out?

Help..cheers.
