It might be. I'll do a quick photoshop and see. Nice idea though. Think they're going to be carbon fibre in the future though.

Couple more pics after I gave the Caddy a quick wash. It was clean when I picked it up but I think there's something about cleaning you're own vehicle that reconnects the bond between you.

It looks simply awesome. Raising the bar as always. I look forward to seeing your up and coming mods as I'm sure you've had loads of ideas while the van has been away.

Looks so good, Dan. The detail in the engine bay is spot on. An incredible achievement, bet you're loving it. Get a video up, would love to hear engine/exhaust!

I need to get the gopro out as I can't hold the phone and video whilst not ending up in a hedge! I've managed to get a 6 second video up on youtube but doesn't do it justice so need to get a better version.

Awesome, although is it somewhat pointless having 360 in a caddy? Not jealous ..... Much, Bet it leaves everyone surprised but how does it drive?

It drives so well. It's certainly a bit raw but I like that - didn't set out to build a GT. But you can drive it in town, clutch isn't ridiculous and it cruises reasonably quietly on the motorway at 70mph. The air ride has been the biggest revelation. It drives like a really good coilover setup but with the flexibility of being able to raise it for bumps. Overall, I'm absolutely chuffed.
