Good colour choice! If I was going to start again with a van this would be my preferred colour
Where did you get to @Jayjmac ???
Sorry mate. Notifications didn’t get through.
Hey up mate, no worries just wondered where you got your disks? They look good.
That looks like a great mod. What spoiler is it? ... and what did you use to modify it to fit over the bike rack clamps? Do you have any dimensions available?New modneeds spraying but some helmet dinged my van so I need to sort that first however looks Bob on!!

Bought some spare T6.1 rear calipers & carriers to smooth off the casting marks before sending off to be painted in candy apple red.
I've been told by everyone I've asked that T6.1 & T6 rear calipers are the same.- I hope this is correct!!
Will be fitting to my 2019 T6 when done.
Removed from a brand new, unregistered, written off T6.1, that was terminally injured whilst coming off the car transporter. Severe roof damage apparently!
With less than 3 miles on the clock, they are as good as new.
Bought with the pads & discs from the same van.

I am trying to get my calipers to look as good as your bad boys!!Let us know how you get on ….could be a trend setter…
Changing the small front calipers for big calipers is the 1st part of the task.
The 2nd are these rears
It'll be a while 'till the secret money tin gets filled back up to complete my journey though...

Welcome to "Club Cantera", although with them being black they are at a higher rarity, rather than the common low life standard silver!!
I see the wheels are still for sale on ebay! Hope nobody buys them
Today I've bought...
A T32 SWB 204 DSG Kombi in pure grey. Only got to wait a year for delivery..........
Options i've gone for:
Also a question. All the conversions I've seen seem to leave the window area around the inside of the sliding doors bare (painted) metal. This galls me a bit on what will be a 60k rig (even my transit DCIV is fully trimmed inside the side doors). Are there any options for fully trimming the inside of the side doors.
Looking forward to your comments.
cheers

Caravelle sliding door cards should hide this, I'm sure someone will confirm or correct me on this.
Ps I'm not jealous one bit you're buying a new kombi.
Mat
Heated windscreen?
I’d choose power-latching on the sliders rather than the power closing (they make a racket beeping at you as they close!) - but that’s just my preference!
Are these a straight swap?
