Nice! Did you paint the panels yourself, got them painted or found some salvage parts?

@Jpjp

Firstly thanks for all the kinda words guys. Front was painted by my mate as a homer £200 for wings bonnet bumper all painted. And I got a rattle can matched to paint for the back bumper and painted myself

Only problem now is I need to polish the whole van to hopefully bring all the colour into line as it’s a lot whiter than whole van but that’s to be expected with new paint

Hey Cal, vans looking good mate, quick turnaround and a bargain it seems
What have you done with the heater vents mate? Are they new or have you fitted a chrome ring of some type? Either way, they look the biz!
