When I bought it (before actually)
Interior when I bought it
First thing to be changed were the steel wheels. Replaced them with some 18” Gallardo rims. Got these off gumtree for £120 with only a tiny superficial mark. Total deal I thought.
Still looking like a tractor but lowering is in the pipeline.
Since I’d be sleeping in it from time to time I thought I’d carpet and insulate the rear. So I ripped out the ply lining and got some carpet from Megavanmats. If anyone is thinking about doing this you will need about 6m of carpet.
Started with the wheel arches, which was a big mistake. Should have started with something easier. Sadly no matter how often I removed and replaced I couldn’t get the one crease out of the right arch and ended up cutting it. Gutted!!
The rest of the carpeting went fine once I got over my balls up on the arch
For the floor I got some industry standard blue vinyl off Ebay. Industry offcuts are cheap! Cuttin this to fit the wooden flooring was a nightmare coz of all the sandy type stuff in the vinyl (nonslip). Christ know how many blades I went though.
That’s pretty much all I have done so far. Next in line is fitting some KW or Eibach coilys. Thinking about getting the bumpers colour coded and spraying the light casing and VW badges matt black. Would love a touran bumper but canny justify the outlay and the cost of a respray ontop of that. A remap is on the backburner but the looks come before performance in my eyes.
