New owner
Hello everyone, new Caddy owner from Scotland, eventually found one
The Van will mainly be used for me getting to & from Work & transporting our 12yr old Son’s MX bike
We’ll document all the bits and bobs we’re wanting to do as we go along on here!
Looking for a front splitter for it but i cant seem to find a specific one for this bumper, so hopefully you knowledgeable lot will point us in the right direction so we can buy one!
Looking forward to adding to this great Forum

Re: New owner
Thanks for the link Scooby
Van is a 2009 59 plate, been told its a Touran front bumper?? Desperately need/want a splitter
Also wanting to lose all the chrome……so door handles, rear number plate top handle, side bars. Dunno whether to go gloss black, Carbon or white and keep the wheels silver, or gloss black for the wheels

Re: New owner
You may need to work out which touran bumper it is then, a front view would help the touran vonversion boys identify it.
Here's some options,

Welcome to the group!
I’m kinda close too, just west of you in Stirlingshire.
And when you fit your splitter, best to bolt it on as opposed to bonding it on… less damage when it gets ripped off! I lost mine to a big puddle a few months ago

Van is looking good! Yeah, the white and silver look would look very cool I drove all the way up to Scotland to pick my van up last year. Seem to have some good vans up them ways ha!
Keep us posted on what splitter you end up going with.
