Tom your new rear doors did they just fit right straight away? 

 

I meant to ask as my pax side door looks like its twisted so thinking about getting a brand new one instead.

 

They fitted ok, although i did check all the alignment with the old doors first. They are nicely done though and i dont think they are really a bad price, considering the 7.5 discount from being a tmf+ member, pays for the postage!

Think that might have to be a christmas present then.

I got the final bits of filler work all finished off the other day






Once done I could get the shell ready for primer, so the whole car needed to be rubbed down and double checked.








Then I gave it a cost of 2k etch primer






Once this was dry I sealed all the seams

I need your garage! Its huge and nice van!

I got the whole underside coated in the protective anti stone chip, I used 3m bag sealer as it is good stuff and the closest match I can find to the origional coating, it certainly looks the part. Ten times better than your average gravitex or whatever. I've added a few close up shots too.

Thats what I was thinking...

Aha I was only joking ,but I will use it, I don't see the point in doing all this work just to have it sat in the corner of the garage, that's no fun!
