Decided to fix and paint the bash in my back door, but got bored waiting on the paint drying so painted the centre section of the front bumper mk6. Bumper looks good but ran out of paint for the back door!

Repaired the lower trim panel (with a soldering iron) under the windscreen and refitted all the windscreen outer trims. Window fitter didnt arrive to change the screen over the weekend and van is going on its travels for a couple of days.

Started pimping as I got home early today & the delivery man has been while I was away,

Image

Dubflecta wind deflectors, seem good quality & a breeze to fit

Image

Before, fried egg look :?

Image

After with chrome bulbs, driver side easy, passenger side means removing the headlight unless you've got inspector gadget arms, still only a couple of minutes though. 8)

Image

Rears as well

'Er indoors wants to know when I'm going to pimp the garden!
After I've got the stainless side bars & front "A" bar fitted :wink:

They are legal as they show an orange light when illuminated, in fact I tried them first in one of the rears & with the hazards on you can't see any difference in colour. I got them herehttp://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/360380218831 they were about the cheapest I've found, some places want a tenner a bulb, I bought half a dozen so I've got a couple of spares.
