The van took another trip to crash care centre this week for front and rear bumper re-paint. The front had a bit of scuff marks from touching a wall and the rear was smart repaired before I bought it. With the bumper off, headlights went on. Boot strip and emblem also got a coat of the grey stuff. Side rails are painted and have all the bits bar the door brackets from Reflex

Sooo close to how I wanted it now

They where fitted at the body shop so seem ok, slight mist inside which seems to be going now. But yeh, not bad! They make the front look so much better though.

I'm a newbie on here and havn't taken the plunge on a Caddy yet, but this thread has shown me that I can get a standard looking Caddy and make it look the dogs danglies! Looks mint. Are the Sportline bits easily available?

I had the same problem when I fitted mine, I removed the covers and checked they were sealing and been ok since.
