New year, new look - TilersForums.com

Well, I've decided to get the van sign written or wrapped in the new year. As some of you know, I drive a Mk 7 Transit Jumbo. Heavily kitted with gear, sounds & cameras so think its time to work on the outside.
As well as the sign writing, I'm hoping to get the rest of the outside pimped to stand out from the crowd.
Here's the plan:

I have mates who work with stainless steel piping & exhausts so hoping to get some side rails & an nice exhaust done also.
Here's my beast the now:

And hoping to get it to look a little like this:

Anyone else got a pimped out van or one that stands out from the crowed or got some nice ideas for external or internal?

How much are the light cluster fittings and the door handles and mirror caps..?

The lamp surrounds and A Team windbreaker are a bit ghastly, might send out the wrong signals. Nice subtle wheels, bullbar and private reg is all you need to make a van stand out imo. The chrome is a bit 2002.

Sunvisor, wheels & bullbar are a must. Already have the private plate. The rest may be a little to much. Wheels are 980kg a corner which is just what I need as I'm carrying nearly 3 tonne at all times.

A couple of my van, alloys are off for the winter. Am going to get it fully sign written soon, only the rear done at the moment.

Vanstyle are a great company. I also used VanX when I was kitting out my old Mk6

hmm, must be a Man thing lol.
If I had a tradesman pull up outside my flat in that I'd think 'flash git', to me gives out the wrong impression.

I'm with you Andy, I have an old shoddy Vauxhall Movano, looks like yours without the writing. I would love a nice shiny van but I don't really keep em that clean anyway so it might be a waste of time getting one.

I wouldn't go for all the stick on stuff personally just get a whole wrap in a bright colour and some good sign writing. That will get you noticed!

 

[Bubblecraft]

Contemplating getting a wrap again. Thoughts crossing my mind. Would have been much easier if my van was all black but your talking an easy £2k just to spray it that
