Our van needs some TLC, I dented the rear door during summer and it has corrosion round the front screen, rear door hinges, under the bonnet along with quite a few other minor dents and scratches. Luckily, a mate of mine owns a good body shop and is going to do the work. I took it to him today for a proper look and he suggested a full respray which sounds good to me. He said he doesn't mind me helping out with the basic stuff either. He said we could have a two tone finish but we're not sure what to do or what colours to pick. Any ideas?/photoshops Heres a few pictures to work off...   |

How about a mural, perhaps featuring a scantily-clad woman being protected from a dragon by a sword-wielding barbarian, or an 18th century naval battle?  But seriously, I reckon it looks spot-on that colour, you'd struggle to find better (IMO). Maybe change the graphics a little, or silver and another colour. |

1989 Peugeot 205. You know, the one that was parked in a ditch on the campsite at RRG'17... the glass is always full. but the ratio of air to water may vary. |

thats what i was going to say but struggling for pics. Old 70's style vans are coming back in and if your painting it anyway would be rude not to. How about lace paintwork? Try to find some pics.

do your light silver a creamy type affair and the stripes in a suitably garish 70's orange.. or some similar combination.. possibly brown and orange for the ultimate win?
