Looks like a tidy job on the swap! You using the Audi brake setup?

It is mate, looks OEM and front brakes from the donor used, maybe swapping them out for r32 mk5 brakes front and rear

Very cool! What was the turnaround time on the conversion from when you dropped the van to Andy?

The turnaround time once all the parts and everything came in and it was ready for collection, including servicing, mot, test drive etc was about 3 weeks.
But I’d dropped the van off weeks before so it felt a lot longer lol

New suspension, bilstein b4 shocks, eibach front springs and rear lowering shackle kit, new top mounts, new drop links, polyurethane dog bone mount insert and a new set of wheels on the way as well.

That’s pretty swift to be honest! I’ll probably try and tackle mine myself, Is tempting to let someone else do it for the convenience however

For the sake of what I’d paid for the parts and wanting do use it and do some proper miles in it and Andy is the only one I believe that puts warranty on his work.
It was a no brainer for me lol I’m great with MDF and shit with wiring

The wiring is always the daunting bit! Fully understand your decision. Luckily I have access to another vehicle so I can take my time on it. Looking forward to delving into some of the info on here and having a crack at it!
