Uggggg it just looks too ford-like, The blue modded one is getting there (because the front is the least awful bit about it) but I'm struggling to like the side and rear

I much prefer that one Dan, I suppose the more we see it possibly it’ll grow on us. You know what they say “Old people don’t like change”

Recess delete and it would look decent ImageImage. I imagine it would be a nightmare to get perfect though

Damn it, that does look better. Total nightmare to do though, the panels are so thin that welding it would be almost impossible without warping it.

Even if the bottom of the line matched up with the door window it looks better.

Yeah I thought it would be a massive head ache but does look smart without it, I’m sure one of the pro’s could pull it off.

You’re right Dan I wonder why the didn’t line it up, possibly because of the runner mountings?

Well it's a Ford connect , not a VW Caddy.
That's why it's odd and off.

That would've been absolutely fantastic, biggest disappointment no doubt.

I like how 'recess delete' is a thing all of a sudden!😂

Noone has mentioned the sunroof? Did I imagine that glass panoramic? I like that, to be fair.....full length ragtop mod!
