I've converted an old 2004 into something, there's a bed in the back of it!

If you're looking to make your own sofa/bed, the logic used in the 'Sofa/bed construction' section on http://deepredmotorhome.com/bed.php gives you storage and a pull out bed. I've used a SWB, which meant an extra bit that'll flip up once the driver/passenger seats are pulled forwards - so the bed's long enough.

Also as i am a laminator mould maker by trade 15 years in the game i was going to use the bumper i customise as a plug to create a mould was thinking about what the interest would be in this to make it worth while

The bumpers are looking really good, did you do them yourself? Hard to do?
