She's a real head turner...



Bits gone for paint so should be sorted in the next week!

In the mean time wash and polish all round

Lmao :-)

Taking shape nicely
How much did the touran side strips set you back?

[caddyirl]

I think the set was around 140 or that way , can't wait to see them on alot slimmer than original. still waiting on my painter to get his finger out!

[Duffer32]

That's not too bad. They're slimmer but are they the same length as the orginals?
They'll complete the look nicely

[Cookie_123]

I want your wheels! Love the colour to man. Look forward to seeing it back from painters with side mouldings and that!

[caddyirl]

Cheers lads, the list of things to do gets bigger and bigger every day I blame caddy 2k!! ya I put them over the originals to see and they are the same length

[Duffer32]

I'll add them to my own never ending list!
Cheers

Picked up the door warning lights and mk 7 puddle lights just waiting on looms painted bits going on Monday its all go!!

I should have gotten a discount with all the interest ive generated on the thread!! sound Andrew ur a gent.
out of interest did you use the red lense cover that came with the van or the red and clear that comes on the door warning lights? Got spares off a skoda and golf but the plastic is not perfect so was going to put an led bulb in and put the red plastic cover over? Dont suppose you tried to fit an led bulb in? Not sure if it will throw up an error or not. I presume its like the interior lights and would be fine, maybe a bit on the bright side but we'll see

[tommyzooom]

I've leds in mine, interior lights aren't canbus, so shouldn't show errors. I used the clear lenses yes, it directs the clear light down towards the ground.
The ones I got were scraped, a wet sand and polish brought them up like new

[caddyirl]

Good stuff would have never thought of that.

[Philt32]

That's exactly what I want to do with mine when it's delivered, same colour too! Scary haha, doing a great job there, looks awesome.

[caddyirl]

cheers, it seems to be a never ending list of mods this site will ruin me!!

[caddyirl]
