You could say some kids coloured your windows in, and you tried washing the marker off but that was as good as you could get it.

then they might turn round and say your insurance is void as front tints are illegal now

I think tints about 34% or something bizarre are illegal, and definately not legal in the front window anyway

thats the thing, rang them after gettin it done and said I was thinking about it, they said it was ok if done by vaux, insurance void if done elseware.
Would they ask for a vaux invoice to prove it???
