What Have You Done To Your Van Today?

[CAB]

Some toe-rag nicked my wheel nut covers, but only on the O/S front, which is exposed to the pavement.

Set of 20 generic covers arrived, so put 5 on so he can nick them again.

Hi Paul, is the trim to ensure more solid closure? If so where are they from and cost

Yeah deffo a more solid door feel and close. Loads of info on here about them. I think i just got mine off ebay from a seller called travelin-lite.

A bit pricey maybe but make a massive difference. I (or my back) couldn't imagine sitting in an unmodified seat for 200 miles but the new bracket make it a doddle - basically, that extra 10º puts the passenger seats into what I would regard as a 'normal' driving seat angle. That said, we're all different.

I’ll see if her indoors complains first. I’ll be driving.

Red trim fitted to the front.

 

[Trouts]

stuck this on (replaces the original which wasn't stuck down properly anymore)
van-x incase anyone's interested.

ps: excuse the Hobbit feet!

 

[Ayjay]

Van looks good, Hobbit feet look just as JRR described!

 

[jimc91]

Fitted the new Kombi floor, wider threshold, step and wired in the LED lights, just need to cover the ceiling now

 

[Jayjmac]

What feet pack did you use, i have the same set up but mine look a bit higher

I’ve got the low roof pack which is the 753 feet. But beware they are not the best to fit! Maybe I got the wrong ones but the rubber didn’t sit well in the guttering.. so I modified them slightly

 

[Radford1071s]

got a set of amarok steels x 5. with new michelin x climates suv rated. simon coles at scvw custom for the steels and camskill tyres for the tyres.pics to follow.

 

[Petegoss]

From gloss black to red ready to fit

 

[Petegoss]

And fitted no probs

 

[Petegoss]

Come on then guys do I stick the next one on or take the first one off ie. the red side bars

 

[TimT6]

I personally think the red bars look better, considering what else is red - colours flow better

 

[Dave Mac]

Well started the morning like this.




And it now looks like this!



So new roof this week

Off, too much red going on imo.

 

[Donk]

With the front lower splitter in red then yes to red sidebars, it helps it flow round. If you hadn’t done the front splitter red, then no.

 

[Ayjay]

I didn't want to be the first say so but deffo off - this sort of thing is always very personal but IMHO, there's too much red going on already (and that's from somebody who supports a team that plays in red!).

 

[Jayjmac]

Fitted the rail that sits up from the guttering. Satin black (sprayed this) Used the OEM bolts but put a rubber washer under rail and left the one on the M6 screw.

Cheers Ayjay, it’s common to see a red van with the splitter and bars in black, black roof too, I’m going to go with the red (mainly as I have the vinyl wrap as that’s all it is) and see how I live with it, not a lot lost if I peel it off in a few months - or minutes!
