That rear rack is the shockworks.

Gave the roof panel seals and all the door seals some love :) Detailed the interior. Before After

Which canyon? Gorgeous photo! Do you have it in a larger format? I'd like to make it my wallpaper :)

I used the traditional "bar clamps" until I determined where I wanted the balls. The bar clamps are much more cumbersome/cluttered - but they come in a variety of styles . (they are also much more versatile because you can move them at any time). I went with the clean drilled balls so that...

Looks pretty cool - I think the hard part is going to be keeping them clean?

et voila: :friday:

Yeah :D Have been using them for years with all the motorbikes. Makes it so easy to bring/remove for whatever setup you need on a given day. :sombrero:

G'day gents! Have been on this site for years with my adventure van... but recently added a jeep to the garage :friday:

Because I can easily remove my dip and in an afternoon restore the van to its easily resellable (and more valuable original) "cargo van white color". Cheers .mobile

Acheateaux: Assuming you already own a spray system, 400 rolls of masking tape, 30,000 feet of plastic, etc... :sombrero: The camo dip is $70/gallon. I think black dip is cheaper - like $60. Pearlizers are more expensive. It will take between 6 and 9 gallons depending on how much you put on...

Gloomy skies do not make for the best photography but I had to snap a couple of photos of the finished product here in my neighborhood this evening before it got dark

Under the trim is where Sprinters often begin to rust as they hold water. Many UK owners pop the trim pieces and rhino line / seal underneath. My primary goal in dipping is to keep the notoriously ****ty paint protected. Cheers, Ed Ps from a time point of view, it takes 30 seconds to pop...

Update: I spent the last couple of days prepping the back half... ...and finally dipped it this afternoon. .mobile

p.s. how this M3 turned out is what sold me on the color :) I'll post more pics of mine when it is done.

This is the dip: http://bit.ly/1lWQiwy It is important to buy the "spray" and not just a gallon of dip. You can dilute your own but it ends up working completely differently - they have a video showing the difference. difficulty: not bad - but I did work in an aircraft paintshop 30 years ago...

The Camo Green by default is flat. I like the flat finish and did not add any glossifier or anything but you can find photos out there of what the camo looks glossified. This is the sprayer I used: http://bit.ly/1tywPkv It is built specifically for plastidip and it is super easy to...

It is camo green. I've only done the front 3rd of the van so far. Fingers crossed it warms up enough I can spray some more before full winter arrives (I live at 8000 feet) :friday: p.s painting a sprinter is like painting a house :Wow1::D

will Abasin let you park overnight?

Externally we use a Thule swing away rack Internally the bikes mount onto the 8020 interior framework (which happens to be all apart in this photo) ...or if we have the dirtbikes along we'll put the mountain bikes on the 3rd rail between the dirtbikes
