Body work has begun

[rob-xcar]

yep it was bought fom the van shop many years ago but has been modified to fit the mk5 with an extension to the top section and different fixing points, you might be able to spot two parking sensors but these dont work they just act as bolt covers.

any ideas if anyone does anything like that for the Mk6

Catdaddy RIP and Slippy bother had kits on their vans, not sure where they got them from.

This is what a FS bumper looks like, with square lamp recesses on Rover's van and the one Im modifying at the moment

Just remembered this image, never looked quite right to me

I'm not completely sure about van-x bumper as its only a skin! but its does look smart and would keep the original intact if I decided to change back to original!! as for the other from m-99 i've looked at several times and really am not sure whether I like it or not as to me it does look a little cheap, but saying that it's a good low end start!!!

I was wondering whether any of the kits meant for the vito's or Transporters maybe able to be modified to fit??

Any ideas???

It's an aftermarket fibresports bumper.

This must be a early one or a copy, prototype or something, its very similar to Rovers and mine... I dont like how the sides are higher than the rest of the bumper, so it doesnt meet the grille panel. And the grille looks (no throwing up smilie)

I have a long nose T4 bumper on my van that i have fitted over the top of the mk5 bumper which i had to trim a bit, works quite well so i'm sure you could do the same with an aftermarket one

How you getting with the interior rob-xcar, after we've taken your thread

[Finn_Timo]

Nice van you got there, keep up the good work! This has given me lots of ideas, I have a dream of customising an MK5 someday in the future... When the funds allow.
