Check out this paint job we did on this VW crafter. ๐Ÿคค๐Ÿ˜

The owners are turning this into an off grid campervan and wanted to ruggedise the van.

We prepped and painted all of the plastics on the van in raptor paint which will now protect the van from scratches.

We think it looks awesome and canโ€™t wait to see this van finished ๐Ÿ˜

A worn auxiliary belt like this could give out at any point causing you a massive headache.
Stay ahead of the problem and replace it before it fails. ๐Ÿš—๐Ÿ’จ
