Yes th sport kit basically seals onto bumper corners, I managed to get set of good fibreglas side skirts and th guy also sold me a length of skirt so I could cut and fit it in to make them longer.
Iam not totally sure if rear bumper corners on lwb are any longer, sure someone else will clarify. If I can be of any help jus ask.
Van is gettin bit sign writing next wk so will post another pic when done, jus hope it doesn't spoil it, but will be free advertising for business.

I see wot u mean lol, but certainly is eye catching. After looking at ur van iam sure the rear corners are the same size, I have 4 original bumper corners if ur ever needin them. Dont have front bumper middle silver section tho.

Think they are in silver but they have got scratches and scuffs on, Painting them wouldnt be a problem tho, Think i may have 4 or def 3 original brand new sport wheel arches.
I do have set fibreglass sport wheel arches but they are not the best fitting arch.

Was bit work involved but think its worth it, personally think it changes look completely, you also have to modify grill mesh section too as its just a blank behind ford badge, easiest option would have been to put in metal mesh but wanted to keep it fairly original.
Have thought about doin one or two and selling them on but doubt if anyone would want to cover labour in hours.

Iam thinkin if grille was supplied then prob bout £150.00, it would also come back primed.
It does sound a lot but there's good half days work in it.
Was thinkin if I get chance at any point I will do another as I have grille sitting.
