How did you get on with the colour coding and engine mods mate? Your van has inspired me to get mine booked in for a delete and remap, exciting times, can't wait!

I cant view the pictures. Would that be because I'm new here ?

Who did your front bumper conversion Dan? I'm toying with the idea myself and have seen the guy on nstagram who does them but never seen his with my own eyes so not sure about the quality.

Re: 2011 Lowered on 19" Revos
That's great info to know mate, thanks very much.
It's as I expected really, some of the photos I've seen of his bumpers, the work looks a little rough around the edges but without seeing them in person it's hard to know I've been a sprayer for 30 years, a smart repairer for the past 17 so doing the paintwork myself isn't a problem but the actual plastic welding and the basic shape needs to be up to it in the first place. The last thing I want is to spend a load of cash on a bumper, a load of time getting it painted and looking great, then find out the filler has started cracking or the welds splitting after a few miles driving. I've considered doing the whole thing myself from scratch but I've noticed that everyone who's ever done one seems to say "never again"
Yours looks great though which is the main thing

Hi.
Really nice Caddy you got!
About the brakes, do you know if a Big Brake Kit from StopTech for example, Audi A3, Golf etc. will fit right out of the box?
If you look at the part number for OEM calipers and discs they are the same on many v.a.g cars.
But in the application lists for StopTech there is no kit for Caddy.
So did you do any modifications to get the rotors and calipers to fit?
Best regards Nicklas
