My white MPV 3 cylinder beauty

Get some Back To Black on that bumper!
Tidy looking wee bus

I still haven't decided whether to blacken the bumpers or do something else with them which is why I've left 'em manky for now.

I'm tempted to take the existing Daihatsu stripes off and paint that whole section from the crease downwards black with a matt black roof as well...

? Not much to see then?

get the heat gun on the bumpers

Oh trollox, I have lost the art of posting pictures

What did you eventually use on the bumpers?

Looks tidy, like it

The bumpers got a rub down with Woody's suggestion which was boiled linseed oil. The intention this summer is to rub the whole thing down, treat the rust (and there's not too much of that remarkably!) and then have a little re-spray. I would love to do a baby blue or something like that but to keep it cheap its going to have to be white again ho-hum.

The one problem with the linseed oil was that I also rubbed the window seals with it....and they have weeped black ever since!

Looking better

I use meguiars endurance tyre shine gel on most outer plastic parts. Works a treat. A bit better then the ballistol i used to take for it. But i varnished the bumpers now.


Great looking van btw. Congrats and cheers!

She's gone...gone away from me....(the Hijet that is)
