Can't you sort it out? Looks like it's had a stroke.

im going to be doing something with them, but not decided yet. Best idea iv had so far is to get some ABS grey plastic sheet with a pinseal texture effect on it, similar to the plastic you get with most car interior panels, and make something from that?

Not a bad idea. Definitely needs something as it still looks pretty agricultural. Flooring looks great mind.

Looks good that, would have maybe covered the floor in something a bit more durable though as with it being a Landy and shit usually just getting thrown in the back from 100 yards it could rip easily?
The back would look good covered in some sort of fabric, but a lighter grey colour.

looks good that. why not just carpet the sides aswell? I'd be tempted to cover it in a lighter colour as said but still some sort of fabric so its easy to replace if it does get ruined.

I'm guessing it's just for aesthetic reasons as Steve won't be using the back to ferry his mates to the local fox hunt.

Much better, the only thing letting the back end down was that not being painted
