Just at the start of my Caddy adventure, tinted windows first, what a nightmare. Made a right @rse of them but they look fine in the rain.

Fitted my painted front and rear painted bumpers today. Just need to sort the exhaust now. Can anyone recommend someone who can make me a section of exhaust and fit it? Everyone I’ve spoke to wants stupid money.

Ebay mate..... obviously you need to get it painted and bond your insides from your original bumper in there.

Looks spot on @cabbs

Who did you get the front bumper off? I’ve been undecided on wether to get one already done or buy the 2 bumpers and give it a go myself.

Nice looking van mate

Thanks matey

I’ve had the front bumper for a good while mate. I got it from a guy on here and Instagram who makes them and bought it unpainted for £550 mate so it wasn’t cheap. It just came in primer but the chap
Who painted it had to do more work to get it looking right before he painted it. It doesn’t look hard to make them yourself mate and will save you some money if your ok with handy work.

Go check out Dan Chambers video on YouTube.
He’s done a video from start to finish mate.

The brains behind it all came from a Good forum member [mention]hef355 [/mention]

@cabbs I’ve been watching the videos Dan chambers has done on making it over and over.

I will now be scrolling through eBay for hours finding bumpers to butcher . It totally transforms the look of the front of the van in my opinion.

Today I finally got my van back from the garage, but in exchange gave them £1486. Hey ho, but it’s worth it.

What happened to the van mate. That's a hefty garage bill. ( if you don't mind me asking)

[Towner11]

No worries. Replaced front springs, front and rear shocks and then few bits that the mot picked up. Had some custom brake lines made and fitted and also a service. Lots of money on stuff that needed doing but nothing exciting unfortunately. So much for upgrading all the speakers.

I know how it is with keeping it maintained. Atleast its all good for a while now.

Last time mine went in for mot it was 2 new calipers on the rear and brake cable. New spring and gad it all poly bushed at the front and new dog bone mount.

any specific speakers your after? I installed some jl audio c1components in mine. Massive improvement from stock.

[Towner11]

Yeah it should be ok for now, needs the timing belt doing in the summer too as I’m pretty sure it’s not been done in a while.

Speaker wise, I have no idea, had just started looking when I got the call about the bill. O well. So would you recommend those? They “plug n play”?
