What Have You Done To Your Van Today?

I reckon you could remove and refit door cards blindfolded by now!

You're not wrong, i don't even have to look at the tools i need anymore. I even have spare OEM door card clips as they are a PITA>

I’m not looking for to I’ll be honest ....was it easy enough to take apart and re assemble ?

It's more of a take your time job, also make sure you tape the area of the door that you can see when the door card is on.

I say the above as when you lower the inner metal skin it can scratch the part of the door that you tape.

Fitted a new splitter that I damaged the other week on a farm track
Fitted a belly pan as it seemed mine didnt have one.
Brought a replacement Toe eye cover and sprayed it as they come in black primed. ( then found my old one on the old track so sprayed that too to get rid of the marks ) thanks to the recommendation of @Dellmassive on another thread regarding the paint off amazon. https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00UB3XA0I/

Got to the end of a couple of jobs today which have been ongoing for the last 10 days, on and off.

Installed gloss black grills from Travelin lite. Easier than expected and a pretty good fit, with the exception of the badge which I still haven't quite worked out how to get properly attached yet. But pretty good results over all.

Sound deadened exterior wheel arches. Did the back half of the fronts with Silent Coat, then 10mm soundproof foam on the arch liner. Cleaning the wax/gunk off was a bit of a pain, and pretty sore hands at the end of it, but not too bad a job. Got to the rears and discovered they already had a Silent Coat layer (boom!), so just put the 10mm sound deadening foam on the arch liner. Cut loads of it off to try and get the liner to fit back in the arch, and eventually, having run out of time I threw my toys out the pram and ripped it all off again as i just couldn't get it to fit back in the wheel arch properly. May revisit that another day, but probably not!

While I was in the arches I twizzed the coilovers down a bit, and, finally, got round to fitting the new shoes! Hadn't been able to find any pics of a Starlight T6 with matt bronze Judd 311r, but thought it might be the sweet spot ... and very pleased with how it looks! Many thanks to Oli @BognorMotors for sourcing the wheels (and invaluable guidance on widths and offset)

They're Eibach pro-street coilovers and they're all the way down. Centre hub to arch is 375mm front and back. On 265/40/20 and no rubbing at all

Thanks for the info. Stance looks exactly what I’m after, I’ve got the h&r/koni coil overs so will measure what height I have now and get them adjusted.

That isn’t a Hunter alignment so it can’t be right! I re-read your post and realised you did your whee alignment, so Mrs @Niknak won’t be moaning about you wetting the bathroom floor anymore then?!!
