Sea Grey Transit Sport

Postby RaymieST » Sun Nov 02, 2014 8:34 am

Hi, picked this up last week, it's a crew cab, mainly bought it for practicality mountain biking and still can use it like a car

Since picking it up I've split the headlights apart and sprayed them gloss black to match the wheels. Fitted chrome indicator bulbs, and philips xenon bulbs.

Put new ford badges on and the 140 sport as they were corroded

Just waiting on the genuine drls to come too. Got paint to do wing mirror covers grey.

Won't be modifying it much just keeping it maintained and cleaned, would like to know is there any after market led smoked rear lights as I've googled but nothing?

I will get some interior pics later

Managed to source a secondhand broken set of Ms design daytime running lights. With hours of hunting high and low for the same light units I managed to find a brandnew set, so that's them on and fitted now. Going in next week for a full respray as the little dings n scratches have bugged me from when I bought the van.
