Title: CHIPSAWAY
Post by: Rhyso on 26 July 2005, 20:36: Hey peeps

Just wondering if anyone has used thses guys as Im currently getting stoopid quotes from body shops to repair a scratch on my rear passenger door. However, bit nervous about it being mobile etc etc

Any experiences good or bad would be useful!!

Cheers
Rhys
