Hello I'm a newbie

[Tomahawk chop]

hi all
Just signed up after lurking around for a few weeks ,
So after loads of research and debate we decided to buy a t6 panel van , went for skyline roof (Weston)and conversion was then done locally here in Exeter
All in all very happy just need to add some bling and personalise it if that's the right phrase

I've got a long list but not deep pockets , but here's what I'd like to add ... new black alloys , side bars , awning , some decals, front mats , puddle lights , wind deflectors ...... and more
Anyone guidance or advice from experienced members much appreciated
Thanks

@Tomahawk chop welcome to the Forum where you'll find lots of nice peeps only too willing to help and advise if asked and give you the benefit of their experience and expertise.
Beware though, we are all pretty good at helping others to spend their money, but to spend it wisely. With limited resources (and who doesn't these days?) my first suggestion would be to prioritise your mods or upgrades. I would start with those that improve the comfort of the users and the usability of your van and only then spend money on the looks from outside.
One major upgrade that many here do is to change and or lower the suspension, a combination of comfort, drivability and appearance but only you can say whether or not your present handling and ride is satisfactory, especially as some upgrades cost over £1000!
Good luck and don't forget to post photos for all to admire.

Thanks , so here's some pics of the original panel van followed by the pop top roof than the conversion
As I said a pice it is great but we need to personalise it a bit
Gotta mention Skyline ROofs of Weston and VW Tarnsportercraft of Exeter for great service and quality build , I'm sure they won't mind
