Well chuffed. Alloys next. And bullbars. And sidesteps.
No idea why the second thumbnail is upside down! (it works fine when you click it)
They look great! So need to find a pair, but alas no luck yet.

Thanks, this is the second set I've bought, I had them on my 2012 van too. It took a while before a set came along both times, but worth it. Look for people breaking XTR cars on eBay, those have the bars fitted as standard.
If you really want a set, there are more currently for sale on eBay (missing the shorter rear end caps but those are easy to get) - from a breaker in England.

Aw thanks mate, just trying to get it the way I want it. I never bothered too much with the last van but decided I'm doing this one up for comfort.
Mostly it just involves getting bits to improve it from eBay and fitting them, and being as I'm toddling towards 60, I'm not up for anything too strenuous lol.

Aye! apparently 80 is the new 60! (I'm a long way from being burned out yet, but the pace has slowed a tad since I was actually 40)

Aye! apparently 80 is the new 60! (I'm a long way from being burned out yet, but the pace has slowed a tad since I was actually 40) I wonder what 66 is then...anyway, Ive just had my drop links done and I've been told that I'll need top mounts, some more bushes and so on - a bit of a suspension rebuild. I was going to sell her, but I can't bear to part with her. 135, 350 miles of VTR. What I'm angling for is a couple of good images of your van. The thumbnails from earlierposts don't show for me (?). Could you stick a couple on, I need inspiration and justification...
