Well lads, first post on here and first caddy. Man this forum is addictive. Picked up a 2012 of a friend of mine, this will be used as a daily and travelling to mountain bike races. They plan is to carpet line the back, colour code the bumpers and hopefully lower it. Regards lowering it, I dont have a clue so advice is appreciated.
Also I'd love to hear some of your opinions on some upgrades I could do that won't put a big dint in the pocket.
I won't be doing anything outrageous on this as racing mountainbikes is expensive enough, I just want to have a nice looking motor when I'm on the road
Cheers lads

another one hooked!
You've already got a nice looking van, so thats a good start!
Personally, I'd put a stance+ lowering kit on for £280 and lose the chrome elephant ears!
Then take it from there.....!

I don't actually know, they were on the van when I got it. Looks like an Ebay buy.

Liking the van and your mods!
I’ve started doing something along the same lines for MTB’ing and MTB coaching, gets very addictive and your list of mods will only get longer

Yeah man I'd be up for that, plan on getting it lowered over the coming weeks, I have been putting it off so cant wait to get it done. I'll drop you a line when I have her done.
