Re: My Caddy on 20inch wheels and gti mk7 front
Wow...... Amazing looking van Hef.
You shouldn't have any issues sticking to the road with them 10J 20's on the rear, haha.
Its all new to me but i'm learning quickly. Are the Mk7 bumpers and grills a straight forward fit or is there lots of modding involved?
Best regards
Carl.

Re: My Caddy on 20inch wheels and gti mk7 front
Hi Carl thank you mate for your kind words! The front mk7 bumpers are custom made and are grafted out of the top half of the caddy bumper and gti mk7 lower part. Then a lot of filler work to get the shape right and ready to paint. I think its a great look and im very pleased with mine. Again thanks for the compliments and best wishes, Hef

So a fair bit of work involved then mate. Yes i agree it certainly looks amazing. The good thing aswell is you don't see many like it.

VW tried to design a better one on the Caddy 4, two tone paint job works better on it but still Hefs conversion is way better looking

Not bad hef, you need to get back into it as you always feel good doing things. The only exception is the paying for them.
Got stacks done and to do, currently in the Bodyshop getting a respray after changing the front end.

Re: My Caddy on 20inch wheels and gti mk7 front
Hi mate new to the caddy world, the app wouldn't let me post this in your wingback thread so.... yours looks epic! I'd love to do my seats is there much modification in them? Or just sorting adapter plates out? Do you wingback rub the bulk head?
