May I ask what wheels these are? (they look the business...)

Hi the wheels are ispiri csr1d.
The wife chose them in a black Friday deal.
I wasn't sure to be honest.
Better pic.
Just need the front slightly lower.

I really like those, and I’m not normally a fan of bigger wheels

 

[Timr]

Think the wheels have grown on me a bit.
Trimmed the sun visors.
Found a black interior light from a skoda vrs.
Just need the two visor hooks in black.
Trimmed and fit the lower bed panel.
Had to get a slot cutter for a router to fit the t trim.
Gone camping

Love that we are now seeing you out and about in your van.

stunning, love the interior black/tan contrast, top job

 

[Timr]

Little bit more progress.
Trimmed the pop top surround in alcantara as it was grey plastic.
Sent all the info to dvla to change it to a motorcaravan.
Lower dash should be next, that needs to be leatherd up.

 

[Timr]

Just made a gear boot and alcantara base up for it.

Wish I could do this sort of thing, looks a million times better than standard.

 

[Timr]

It's starting to feel a bit more like driving a nice car.
Quite labour intensive is doing all the plastics.
Seats are straight forward as there's patterns.
I have to make all the patterns before hand so its quite time consuming probably why not many t5/t6 cabs have everything retrimmed.

We should try take it to some shows at some point.

Hi it's got 255 40 19 on at the mo.
These will probably change as my next project is to fit air suspension.

Hi thanks I'm a design engineer.
I have worked in the auto trimming trade previously.
So that helps but I try to do most of the work myself on all of it.
Cheers

Located some black sunvisors clips to remove the last bit of grey in roof

 

[Timr]

Bit more progress on the lower dash.
Managed split the glove box apart to trim the lid.

Really sorry about your loss but what a great silver or should I say leather lining!!!! You are an artist!
So do you do that for a living?
