    You worked it out and did it just like a PRO.

    You have a great understanding of how things work, as is evidenced throughout the entire build.



    Great job Mate.

    Thanks Rob, just got to be patient and work things out, and don't be afraid to ask people if you need help

    Hi Grunt,

    Your van looks amazing, I have been watching the thread from a distance. Beautiful job. I desperately need someones who I can trust to apply my decals. Would you consider helping me out, I would be very happy to pay you for your time and skills. Let me know.

    So I have been doing a few cruises and shows and wanted a bit more under bonnet bling. I bought a sheet of 3mm mirror acrylic sheet to make mirror in fills under the bonnet. I had an old bonnet left over so I used that to make the templates.
    2x beer boxes later I had a set.
    The mirror was cut with a jigsaw. Where the mirror fixes under the bonnet I put that clear body vinyl, the stuff used to stop stone chips in those areas.
    The reason for this was if ever the mirror needed to be removed the paint would not be damaged and the whole underside would look factory again.
    The mirror was installed using double sided foam tape and urethane adhesive.

    Thanks to the many photographers at the shows who can take much better photos than I do

    I have since installed a wanky Holden projector thingy under the front that shines on the ground in front of the van. Its great for night cruises and the kids love it. Bit of of a laugh
