pretty easy to do the indicators. i held a nail in a pair of mole grips & heated it up with a blow torch. then cut the orange into 4 sections with the red hot nail (so the sections will fit through the hole) the just tap the sections off from the indicator & remove via the hole

Nobby_Turbocabby · 05-01-2008, 06:46 PM

NATH-RSZT · 05-01-2008, 10:33 PM

That looks spot on mate top job, what paint are you using are you using a base coat and laquer or just an akrilik paint cos that looks realy good,

combi van man · 05-01-2008, 11:57 PM

Had to look twice at the sapphire reg then, my dad had an orion 20 yrs ago and the reg was F504DNA. Ha, good job on the van, i agree about the back bumpers being black though.
