Err, I've got parking sensors! Probably had the radio on too loud. Clever stuff really, the guy turned up with a load of homemade rods and just sort of fiddled about with them for an hour and a half. Not half as skilled as window cleaning mind!
The guy never even had an NVQ, didn't do a risk assessment and I saw no sign of a method statement. No wonder we are so highly paid!

The decals are kevlar reinforced with a kryptonite weave,.. if he'd hit the sticker the van would prob have been saved any damage at all! ;)
