Thanks everyone.

Collected the parts yesterday and had a solid 12 hours on the van installing everything today. Absolutely over the moon with how the engine bay is looking now, looks a lot better in the flesh than in the photos. Thanks to Mr Carbon for doing everything. The composite bulkhead plate is so light, should have weighed them but wanted to crack on. Still waiting on the Alternator end cap, once that’s here I think that will make 26 individual Carbon pieces in the engine bay. Also cleaned and re-oiled my air filter, as it was looking grey/black. Surprised at how well it’s come up.

All this detail on a daily driver, there are $1M cars built for SEMA show with less attention to detail.
Fair play buddy, I wish I had your dedication.

I’d have strong words with anybody who thinks this caddy isn’t in the top 5 in the world mate. Absolutely stunning! Cleaner than clean too

Can we all chip in and ship this to Las Vagas for SEMA show, maybe show them how it's done.

I’ve just had a look through google images as I’m not familiar with the SEMA show. Yeah, this van would hold its own there I’m sure.

On another note, who painted the F40 pink?

Ha ha as long as you take it @Doc, I’d prefer to stick pins in my legs rather than go Las Vegas.

How to transform a daily used dog van into a show car, ready for Ultimate Dubs.

Step 1: Remove dog cage (preferably without dog present).

Step 2: Spend 108 hours cleaning, scrubing, replacing and polishing everything.

Step 3: Step back and admire your work for 2 minutes.

Step 4: Have a cup of tea to drown your sorrows because in another 5 minutes it will be filthy again.
