This VW Transporter T6.1 arrived with its lower front grilles showing significant signs of wear—peeling, flaking, and detracting from the van’s otherwise sharp appearance. To bring back that original, clean look, we replaced the tired grilles with a set of gloss black OEM-style replacements. These new grilles matched the factory finish precisely, eliminating the unsightly flaking and restoring a cohesive, professional front end.
- Key Benefit: Enhanced appearance – the van’s front end regained its factory-fresh, tidy look.
- Direct-fit replacements ensured a seamless installation with no modifications required.
- Gloss black finish provided a durable, long-lasting upgrade over the original parts.
With the new grilles in place, the VW T6.1 looked as good as new—no more eyesores, just a smart, unified finish that stands up to daily use.
Upgrade for Comfort: VW T6.1 Soft-Close Sliding Door Retrofit

We recently completed a soft-close sliding door retrofit on a VW T6.1, transforming the user experience for both driver and passengers. The original door required a firm push to close, often resulting in loud slams—especially inconvenient in residential areas or at campsites. By fitting a soft-close system, we made it possible for the door to close securely with just a gentle nudge, as the mechanism automatically pulled the door shut in a controlled, quiet motion.
- Key Benefit: Improved comfort – the van now features whisper-quiet, effortless door operation.
- The retrofit included full integration with the vehicle’s electronics for a factory-level finish.
- California models were accommodated with extended fitting time due to their unique requirements.
This upgrade not only reduced noise but also made the van safer for families, minimising the risk of trapped fingers and reducing wear on door components. The installation was completed efficiently, allowing the owner to enjoy a more refined and convenient daily routine.
