    bumper paint removal

    bumper paint removal

    a little survey

    LOL cheers Daved. I like your comment about bikes and driving assessments as I passed my direct access 6 years ago for the bike previous to that it was about 1972 when I passed my car test. What an eye opener when I did my direct access, highway code was nearly as thick as an Argos catalog...
