Van Modding

willhollin · 12-14-2008, 04:45 AM

As I own a van, I joined up to a forum just as I did this one to find out a bit more about the vehicle. I have done a few mods on the BMW but it hadn't crossed my mind to mod the van, that was until I saw this photo which sort of made my mind up.

willhollin · 12-14-2008, 04:48 AM

Love escort vans with either a cossie lump or rs turbo lump in them.

Looks like someone cut a hole in their dash and threw in a 1930's radio.

If your stuck for ideas Will, just ask

SoYank · 12-14-2008, 12:07 PM

If you do anything like that, Will, please be kind to your fellow E90POST.COM members and do NOT, repeat, DO NOT put any kind of sticker, emblem, or other indicator that might even remotely tie it to this forum.

I wonder how much faster that pink van is with those bat wings.

Amongst other things I install oil tanks, and can fit holding tanks and all my kit in the back.

I think you should get a nice paint job as well...

The A-Team van is the coolest van on the planet!
