Hey, great shots of customized vanagons. I particularly have my eye on
the custom top headlight grill seen here. (Not the lower grill)

I saw this grill once before but it was painted the same color as the
body. It looked just a touch custom and gave the nose of the van that
sleepy modified look (note the heavier top border "hanging" over
headlight) I was wondering why the vanagon vendors on the list can not
get these custom parts. Can they?

I also noticed that many vans were lowered without a camber problem.
Particularly the rear. When I put weight in mine the camber goes way out
of adjustment big time. I was told there is a camber adjustment and took
a quick look but do not see anything obvious. When I get new
springs/shocks I will take a closer look.

If anyone else finds german vanagon websites please post them.

Vendors...your cue.

Lee
