If not where did you get it
Watch out for the brushed aluminium addiction! My Caddy came with aluminium everything (apart from pedals and vent rings). If you wanna go all in, there's pedals, door handles, window switches, handbrake button, gear lever, light switch etc. etc... ;)

The carpet is very stretchy, the first (n/s) side is all one piece even round the corner pillar - required one slice to remove a little excess in the wheel arch / pillar corner but ridiculously straightforward. The other side I did in pieces but only because i was using up cut pieces (cos i mistakenly did all the small panels first) saving the larger piece for the ceiling. There was plenty of material in the 5m kit to do the two sides, roof panel and all the 'original' clip off panels, and a small bit left over.
TIP: start with the largest bits.
The longer clips may seem like a bit much at 20 quid but they make refitting a lot easier.

PS. You're gonna wanna pick up the O-Ring for the oil filler (looks like it's missing) or it's gonna get messy...

After a stressful day, I did my touran front bumper conversion, which weren’t bad at all, it was the fogs and wiring the loom that took to long to do and they still don’t workImageImage
Blacked out headlights and new fog lamps
Rear bumper fitted all ready for exhaust to be booked inImage

@sean1066 cheers bud! The loom was from eBay mate, currently having a problem with making the connection either at the switch or the bcm to trigger the fogs to work

@astraman18 thank you man, I can take credit for the front, but I can’t take credit for the rear. It was made by friend off Instagram (@2kcaddy), genuine R32 bumper the diffuser was cut out and then the diffuser shape cut out of a caddy bumper and plastic welded/screwed from the inside and smoothed etc. So it’s a straight fit, just need to cut the crash bar down in width, and I presume I may have to lose it, but I’m going to see a friend who makes custom exhaust and to try and get around it!

Finally carpeted the new ply kit and fitted it to the van.

Used a bit of old vinyl flooring that I used for photo shoots until I decide what I want to put down long term.

Silent coat and insulation also done, you can now hear a pin drop in the rear.

Quite happy with the finish considering I’m an old novice with a bad back! Image
