Help - Startline - highline/Sportline upgrade

[Darrena16]

Hi guys
Looking for some help please!
I've purchased a 2018 (68 Plate) Ex - RAC Van T6 DSG Startline and want to upgrade it to a Sportline or a great looking highline (e.g. maybe a spoiler or splitter)
The current van has the fog lamp upgrades (not sure if this relevant?
I understand the right way to do this is to replace the current bumper with Highline bumper and all the lower trims, then add a new top grill of your choice, and if sportline add the spoiler over the top of the lower part of the front bumper. Is that right?
As part of the purchase the supplier has agreed to do all the paintwork as part of the buying price so I just need to buy the parts which is why I don't ant to get it wrong.
I've looked at a few kits on Trevelin-Lite and they seem to come with DRL fog lights etc but don't show great pics of the end product and are quite expensive, circa £900, does anyone have any experience of these kits or have any alternative solutions

TIA

Hi Darrena16,

Did you complete this upgrade. I have just purchased my Transporter and would like to swap the startline bumpers for highline. I would be interested to know if its a straight swap with replacement upper grille or whether other parts are required. Thanks Leon

Hi
I purchased the full replacement bumper and grille package from travellinglite. The grille and bumper are one on the startline so you need to replace it all. Cost was about £600-700 for the parts

Thanks for the prompt reply. I did see that kit, but was wondering if it was any different to buying genuine parts.
I have priced the upgrade using genuine used parts and it comes out quite a lot cheaper, but I was wondering if the parts were compatible or is the kit from travelin lite a specialist design for this type of upgrade.
