the problem is once i buy all the parts it leaves me around £30 left over,and to then spend a whole day making a set, its pointless for £30

dont get me wrong i still making them,but i get really p*ssed off when people ring and have a dig at the price.

anyway bitch over :lol: basic set is £290.00 posted
then to spec up to the 7500k double angeleyes is £20.00 extra.



I would pay that all day do they have dippers in them coz one of my light is point up and won't adjust

I don't think you'd want to eat this stuff. But I can't tell you anymore as it was on a plain, label free bottle!


Looks like it has the same effect as the stuff i got from ebay.....http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Plasticare-Tr ... 3cce824b0b

Very good stuff mine still looks as good as the day i put it on 8-9 months ago.


The same product in Greece.......http://www.mysonax.gr/autoshop/product. ... roduct=175

Also ordered the custom made seat covers.

7500k of angel eye magic 8) :twisted:


.......along with the genuine sportvan sides.

These were originally on Pauls sportvan before being damaged and replaced by insurance, changing hands a number of times before Paul repaired, colourcoded and fitted them onto my connect to complete the look.

The last job of the day was to test a new secret trim treatment

All that s left to do now is give the van and damn good clean and mop the roof :oops:


Hi

Can I ask questions that will help me with my project van, first off is the Paul you are referring to on here call paul2012 and also what was the company you used to get all the colour coding done and do they supply the later model kits as I have a 2004 and I want a later bumper and stuff on mine

Hope you can help
Thanks

Is that the cheaper way to go as there's only a few dinks and chips on the paintwork, it's white so cleans up well, how much do you normal pay then if you don't mind me asking and who do you use?

Ohhhhh yes indeed I have heard some good recommendation about your company, was going to sorce all the body work for the van then chat about getting the van sprayed, not sure how much it will be as I've never had a van sprayed, your work look very clean and excellent, top notch work Paul 8) 8)
