I must admit, I like it as is, in an ideal world clear perspex, but if you really have to, something that matches the grill mesh

now thats a really great idea alan....matching the grille mesh! very very good idea umm all i need to do i graft several grilles together and hey presto factory fitted front end again......i do like it exposed though but that would just finish it off
thanks for comments

i like it exposed too 8) wheres the plate going :?: if you do cover it with grill mesh you should be able to get a sheet of similar patterend gauze that will do the job :D

i think the van has outgrown the wheels too - a set of 20" alloys would be good 8) the 1st transit on 20" rims :?:
