You Can't Polish A Turd..........
But you can stick some jazzy-jeff bits to it, to hide the fact its a turd!!!
Here are some pictures of my turd courier van.
I'm happy with how the front looks now. I just need to do something with the back.
Mods so far are:-
Escort cosworth wheels
Zetec S front Bumper
Tinted Headlights
Zetec S Sliver dash parts
Zetec S Blue Steering wheel
Puma 1.7 Gearknob
Anyone got any suggestions??

See the thing is, Its an awesome little van, Goes very well, Uses next to no juice. It just looks so shit and butt ugly.
I was thinking about painting in the rear side panels the clip to the back bumper. Just after something to make it sound out a bit

you can polish a turd. Lion shit in fact, saturate it in water then roll it in to little balls next bake it in the oven then on to a polishing wheel shine it up until it reaches a gloss index of .8 (iirc) then it's technically declared as polished. Hope this helps. Lmao.

get some side skirts for it some flat mk5 rs2k skirts might work if they fit size wise. Front looks fine and tbh Ive never seen anyone do one of these before. Buy a rear zetec s bumper cut the bottom off of it and blend it into the one on it. drop the back down and it will look smart

Get it cleaned up, sort that scrape out on the side, tint the rear windows properly, get some fogs and a tow eye cover for the front bumper, change that fooked front number plate, lower it a bit and it'll look a lot better!

Moneys not the issue. I enjoy spending money on my cars, doesn't matter what it is. I've already admitted that under all the little touches it's a turd. But why not speed a little bit clearing it up and just make it look smart?

PassionFord Post Whore!!
Paint a big fly on each side just to complete the turd scenario. Other than that you're bang on it is a turd. By the way i am qualified to comment on what is or isn't a turd as i also drive a pile of shit.
