Laurie Williamson thanks a lot! Yeah sanded, primer, spray, no clear coat! 😁
Hi mate great vid I also have a connect plan on de-badge colour code bumpers Matt the arches. Your van looks great good progress I'm thinking egr delete and de-cat on mine then a map
Andy moore cheers pal! All sounds good hope it’s turns out just as great!
Looks mint 👍
Cheers for watching pal 💪🏻
Nice and cool ! I have a 2010 Ford Transit Connect and I just put in 2nd row seat after I took out the cargo cage and cargo mat. Look good.
Wow very cool 😎 thanks for watching 💪🏻
@@coswecan you are welcome
mate your doin great keep going
Appreciate it, thanks for watching!💪🏻
I'm abit late to the party I know 😂 but just got my connect and also want to spray the arches and bumpers to what grit sand paper did you use? Thanks..van looks great👍
Thanks for watching, it was a very low grade sand paper hardly even scratched the surface! Wey and dry 👍🏻
Hi mate i hope your well! Great video! What gritt sandpapers did you use if you dont mind me asking?
Honestly can’t remember just soft stuff
Looks bang on.
Thanks for watching pal 💪🏻
I like the way you have it low on the ground i have a 2012 i would like to get a coil over kit!
What suspension you have on it?
This was a flipped rear axle and lowering springs on the front 👍🏻
Smart mate 👌 I’m still undecided whether to do mine black or colour code the arches and handles white.
Geraint Davies cheers mate! If it were me I’d say black as I like the contrast between two colours but sometimes colour coded does look smart as well 🤷🏻♂️ 🤪
coswecan I know 🙈 changing the chrome in the headlights to black as well looks good.
Wat kinda Matt black paint did u uses I like it. Do nerdo grey
Honestly I can’t remember, it was from
B and q
Hi, I have a Ford Transit Connect, it's a 2005 L200 1.8 TDCI and it's pretty damaged but I'm counting on restoring it. Your videos are fine, keep it that way. +1 sub :)
Benoît Georger Good luck with the restoration Benoit! Thanks a lot, really appreciate the feedback! There’s going to be lots more videos coming very soon as there’s still LOTS to do on this van!! :)
Thanks and good luck at you too
Side and bull bars
Nice vid! Anyone get back to you with a gel overlay for the badges? Can’t find any online 👎🏼
Reece Hassett Thanks mate! No they didn’t however I checked my badge and turned out it was an overlay itself, so tore it off and it had the original one underneath in good condition!! 😂🤦🏻♂️
Hi, what black spray paint did you use pal?
Cheers
Just a matte black plastic one from b and q, nothing too special 💪🏻 thanks for watching
Helllo, do you have any information on how to get it to sit like yours ? Is it just on lowering springs or do you have to do something with the leaf springs ?
Hey mate, mine had a flipped rear axle, these days you can buy lowering leaf springs to save the hassle. The front is just lowering springs too! 🙏🏼
@@coswecan wicked buddy thank you very much
Excellent stuff, quite a visual change for the sake of a few rattle cans and some effort 👍🏼👍🏼
rusty thanks again mate, I agree changes the whole look for the sake of half a day in the sun topping up my tan and a few rattle cans 😂🤪
@@coswecan I've just bought a 2010 high roof LWB Connect... No real plans as yet, so following your progress with interest 😉
rusty very nice!! Loving the amount of love for vans there is!! 😎🖤 New video should be up Sunday night 🤪
@@coswecan Yes, there seems to be quite a bit of love for the Connect but compared to the Ca**dy very little coverage on the 'net.... Keep it up and I'm sure you will get a good many followers 👍🏼👍🏼
rusty you are right, people love those VWs!! Thanks again man I shall try my very best as really do enjoy every video I make 😁
Did u use plastic spray paint ?
And how did it hold up . e.g when jet washed ?
Looks loads better
Danny Byrne yeah mate, plastic primer and plastic paint! It held up alright done this on 2 vans now and il be honest one lasted a lot better than the other! It’s about what might have been on the plastic previously and the age/material and most importantly the prep before paint! Hope that helps mate 👍🏻
@@coswecan yeah prep is everything . I spray showertrays so I can spray and iv used rattles cans a lot of cars bikes ect never painted plastic arches tho ! . what brand did u end up using ? I'm getting lwb Nxt month for the MX bike but they all have faded plastics spesh the pre 09 models . cheers dude ;-)
Danny Byrne you know what mate I can’t remember the brand but it was only from b&q nothing too special
No worries mate , I'll have a look into when its sat in front of me , never know might be able to use the old black trim paste haha
Danny Byrne exactly see what it’s like when you get it, then go from there 👍🏻
Wat cans of paint did u use as in primer and paint and any lauquer? ( metal primer? Plastic primer? )
Plastic paint and primer, no lacquer, from B&Q
@@coswecan ok great just wondering wat to buy car paint wise
I’m asking o. Behalf of my brother who’s just bought same van but wants to do arches white and make his look like a mini a team van
Have you still got it
No I don’t it was sold mate, great vans though 👍🏻
How did you lower this van please
I didn’t, bought it like this. You can buy rear lowering leaf springs these days and get somebody to fit them and then just normal lowering springs on the front. Other than that Google “flipped rear axle” that’s how most people will lower a vehicle with a leaf spring rear suspension. Thanks for watching 💪🏻
@@coswecan
I can’t find them leaf springs anywhere lol
The van looks very well mate
Sold this one a long time ago but thanks 🙏🏼 try modyourconnect.co.uk or eBay 💪🏻
Also would it of not been quicker to remove the trims?
Maybe? I’m not too sure
What did u use pal
For what?
The bumper
@@scottwalters3033 wet sand paper, a plastic primer from b and q, and some plastic matte black paint also from b and q 💪🏻
Did you degrease an sand down the bumpers first
Yes I did
Should have painted white to match :)
Good idea, I liked the contrast 😆 thanks for watching 💪🏻
@@coswecan
Looks cleaner all white 😂
Personal preference 🤷🏻♂️ I personally don’t like it all the same colour 😁
