you have left the window edges in where tyour green line should be, the main reason for the rear window/van conversion looking weird is the distint join of the two shades of purple/pink.

because its not that big.. its about the size of a.. pontiac vibe/toyota matrix.. just wider; so that makes this a Panel-Wagon more than a Van -- but.. it other countries i guess you could call it a van depends on the culture really. In fact, the Danish have the factory "Van Conversion" option.
Now - as for the chop; Its really not that bad. You should get rid of the old window rubber from the windows that used to be in the back. You could probably get away with doing the same to the front window on the bototm. It wouldn't be a bad idea to brush/paint the window-frame on the front door either. If that were colored, it'd look more.. complete. You also need to blend the rear highlight with where the back door used to be [i'd use the smudge tool at about 65-70% for this]. Higher-resolution wheels would've been better as well. Keep practicing, you'll get it down soon.
OH! one more thing -- If you can't find donor pictures as big as your original.. make your original smaller [your wheels]

alright, let me break down the chop...
1. the paint isn't half bad, good work there, because a lot of people attempt paint and just ruin their chops..
2. I see what you were trying to do with the back window, but its smudge, and there arent any reflections on it... I understand this is a studio shot, but there would still be some sort of light reflecting off..
3, the top right hand side of your door is off too, it gets lighter all of the sudden and its slightly blurry..
4. nice execution on the wheels and lowering, chrome wheels on a studio shot are usually impossible to pull off unless they came from another studio shot (which you never see) so good work on finding the donor...
5. I would rate this as a good quick chop, but a substandard actual chop because of the lack of modifications, keep practicing
