    Nice van, can you tell me where the rear spoiler and the bike carrier came from ?

    • @CampervanAdventures
      @CampervanAdventures  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hi Gareth thanks for the comment,the rear spoiler is an ABT style one I bought it from a company in Poland some time ago.It’s made for the Vw T6 originally,(tailgate,not barndoor)so I had to first cut it in half and mod a fare bit to get it to fit.if I can find the name of the company that I got it from I’ll post it up to you…..as for the bike carrier;it’s a double fiamma bike carrier I bought it off ebay(only paid about £60 for it,was originally silver)but I wanted a black one but if you want a black one from fiamma it will set you back about £330 new!……I just sprayed mine black,if there’s anything you’d like me to cover in a video or something you’d like to see in a future video just leave a comment mate……and if your not a subscriber please think about subscribing as I’ve got more videos lined up but I also want feedback from people like yourself on future videos.Thanks again for your comment Gareth stay safe👍

      @@jamesteanby1645 you need to cut the spoiler in half(not for the faint hearted that part lol)then at the ends you’ve just cut,you need to extend them by about 20mm or so,so the spoiler has the ends you’ve just cut finished off…..then when you come to fitting it to the van I used tiger seal,I also used rivet nuts in the spoiler and bolted it to the van instead of screws(so it’s on there solid)but I don’t think bonding alone will be strong enough!Having said that I did use tiger seal,and that’s a good panel bonding sealant.Thing is I’m a person that will have ago at anything,it works great….if not try again until it does lololol.Good luck,more so the point don’t be afraid to try😉
