Just imagining how much money I'm going to spend when I get a caddy by flicking through these pages!

So, day one of being a Caddy owner.

Couple small jobs ticked off.. I had the door cards off to fit new speakers (previous ones were blown). More straightforward than expected and sounding good!

Then did a rear wiper delete (c20 so has the windows in the barn doors) - definitely need to have the glass tinted.. any cheap and effective ways out there?

I need to fit some springs next.. just want it sat slightly lower so its not looking too standard!

Thought it might fit my Mk4 with a bit of modding !

Yay 😃

Looks better than the Reimo version, though about twice the price !!!
Did you have to do a lot of modding or did it fit right in?

Its bad I can't remember for definite but iirc to have a sunstrip supplied and fitted along with the rear barn door glass vinyl wrapped in the closest colour match was £120 for me which I thought was pretty cheap :D

Mk4 arches mod’d to fit my mk3

95% happy with them, need to make a slight adjustment as the tape holding one of them burst before the bonding set!

And a quick test fit for my R32 style side skirts.
