thanks for comments guys much appreciated, i think it would be boring if all vans looked standard and i have to have em pimped up some way or another, the more modded /customised transits the better imo as i believe we are well behind the vw scene and transits should'nt be looked at as just a work tool when sometimes we spend more time in the van than in the house!!....... I'm going to ditch the chrome mirror caps and ditch the front chrome light covers and black them out instead, iv'e ordered the 3 piece front sport van kit so going to fit that and move the stainless light bar under the grill onto the roof above the sunvisor , oh,,,and ill get rid of the tdci badge aswell (i'll post pics up when its done!) :) :) :) cheers :D

Well i am sorting the electrics out on this van and believe me its mint
it should stay as it is and i agree that we do spend more time in our
vans than we do at home so make it to suit you

I love you van Mate, customisation is a peronal thing, I wil be adding chrome mirror covers door handles, lock covers, headlight covers in chrome and rear lights covers in chrome, alloy dash kit and roof spoiler. I am also loking into fitting three bucket seats. Maybe roof bars now lol. ATB. Reeco

Every vehicle I have owned I have ended up modifying, in my opinion less is more, try too hard and it looks too bling. I have put the ms kit on mine, but no stripes. As for the wheels, it has to be ms wheels if you have the kit, anything else looks wrong.

I like chrome......on my Anglia :D Get rid of all the halfords extras and fit a sports kit and alloys. Nice shiny van though, and looks cool inside.
