Also finished skinning my replacement inlet manifold, just waiting on new rocker cover bolts arriving before fitting!

@C Chis, That engine cover looks fantastic mate. Has it been hydrodipped?

[mention]the swan fiend [/mention] no, carbon skinned. You use genuine carbon fibre weave and then layer epoxy over the top, flat and then polish. Blame Chris ([mention]Lister79 [/mention]) for posting up his skinned parts and giving me the idea!

Haha, yes we’ve all taken inspiration from someone else mate, and spent the money too! Addictive I find

Just imagining how much money I'm going to spend when I get a caddy by flicking through these pages!

Re: What did you do to your van today?
So, day one of being a Caddy owner.
Couple small jobs ticked off.. I had the door cards off to fit new speakers (previous ones were blown). More straightforward than expected and sounding good!
Then did a rear wiper delete (c20 so has the windows in the barn doors) - definitely need to have the glass tinted.. any cheap and effective ways out there?
I need to fit some springs next.. just want it sat slightly lower so its not looking too standard!
