Default Modifications to my B in 2022

Here are a few mods I did to our B (named Rover) this past year.

- Sprayed Raptor Liner all along the lower section of the van. A lot of the paint in this area was in poor condition.
- Rolled on Raptor liner with a traction additive onto the steps
- Installed a thermometer for the fridge
- Replaced the OEM radio with a more modern head unit with Apple Carplay, hands-free phone connection and a wired backup camera
- Installed a USB charging port connected to the fuse panel
- Replaced several of the inside lightbulbs with LED's

*I was hesitant/nervous to do the Raptor Liner because there is no "Undo" button but it went on easily and came out great.

A friend used Raptor on the belt line of his Subaru and it came out great. He used a primer gun and experimented to get the pressure right so it came out with very little texture.

Default Express Van Peeling Paint

Wonder if Raptor would work on Express Van peeling paint?

There are a lot of videos out there discussing all aspects of applying Raptor. There are a bunch of people that have done their entire vehicle.
