Looks under wheeled. The maxi never looked right as it looks out of proportion.

Hey CaddyLuv,

How are your painted interior parts holding up? I'm debating whether to spray everything myself or asking the paint shop to do it.

Hope you got your van back and returned the monster truck caddy!

Yeah hated it 🤮🤮🤮 sorry standard maxi owners. Seems fine mate. I obviously use the sun visor the most, there are no marks or scratches. I clean it. Wife uses the mirror that hasn’t marked yet. But even if they do it’s a really quick repair isn’t it. I wouldn’t pay someone the hardest bit is taking it all apart. Just be patient for it to dry putting it back. If you can leave it s couple of days to dry. All good.

My interior, headlining, shelf etc has been out the van for ages now so no sweat taking it out lol. I know the guy who owns the paint shop so he might do it cheap save me using 100 spray cans lol. Glad to hear it's holding up!

1 can I think, done parcel shelf, A pillar trims, sun visors, B pillar trims, pull handles, interior light and seat belt cover trims. Then I used a cheap Matt black can for the headlining.

Awesome thanks guys!
What spray can did you use for the trim and shelf etc? I've been recommended Plastikote but I saw Caddyluv used something else!

I've been fighting with the headlining for the past couple of weeks but I've finally got somewhere with it using Vinyl Spray Paint. It took a fair few cans to get an even coat but I got there eventually.

Any recommendations on where I can pick up Upol stuff?

Cheers!
