They extend the bodywork towards the ground and give the van the sleek profile of a modified van, \u003cstrong\u003ewithout lowering the suspension\u003c\/strong\u003e or sacrificing useful ground clearance. Two versions depending on your vehicle: \u003cstrong\u003eTransporter Multivan T5\u003c\/strong\u003e or \u003cstrong\u003eCaravelle T6\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy install a lower bodywork extension on a T5 or T6\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e\n\n\u003cstrong\u003eComplete left and right pair\u003c\/strong\u003e: both sides are supplied, as the visual effect only works when symmetrical.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e\n\n\u003cstrong\u003eLow and sleek profile\u003c\/strong\u003e: the panel visually lowers the body line by several centimeters, where a van always looks tall on its legs.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e\n\n\u003cstrong\u003eNo chassis modification\u003c\/strong\u003e: no short springs, no geometry to redo, the payload remains intact.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e\n\n\u003cstrong\u003eTwo distinct cutouts\u003c\/strong\u003e: the \u003cstrong\u003eT5\u003c\/strong\u003e and the \u003cstrong\u003eT6\u003c\/strong\u003e do not have the same lower door design, each version is specific.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e\n\n\u003cstrong\u003eMixed screw and adhesive mounting\u003c\/strong\u003e: the panel does not vibrate on the highway, unlike a purely glued installation.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e\n\n\u003cstrong\u003eReady-to-paint finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: keep the raw black or have it painted to match the body color.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSide skirt, lower bodywork, running board: do not confuse\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA \u003cstrong\u003eside skirt\u003c\/strong\u003e is a purely aesthetic and aerodynamic bodywork piece: it dresses the \u003cstrong\u003elower bodywork\u003c\/strong\u003e between the two wheel arches. A \u003cstrong\u003erunning board\u003c\/strong\u003e, on the other hand, is a structural piece designed to carry the weight of a person — these skirts do not fulfill this role and must not be used as a support. On a \u003cstrong\u003eTransporter T5\u003c\/strong\u003e or a \u003cstrong\u003eCaravelle T6\u003c\/strong\u003e, whose sides are long and flat, the extension breaks the visual height and complements a large-diameter wheel fitment well. It is the element of the \u003cstrong\u003ebody kit\u003c\/strong\u003e that gives the most effect for the simplest installation, even before a front lip or a diffuser.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTechnical specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eType: \u003cstrong\u003eside skirts\u003c\/strong\u003e \/ lower bodywork extension panels.

Start with a \u003cstrong\u003edry run\u003c\/strong\u003e with masking tape to define the height and alignment on both sides. Measure the \u003cstrong\u003efinal ground clearance\u003c\/strong\u003e: on a loaded vehicle, a panel that is too low will catch the parking curbs. \u003cstrong\u003eDegrease with isopropyl alcohol\u003c\/strong\u003e the gluing area, apply the panel in sections by pressing firmly, then place the mounting screws at the marked points. Work above \u003cstrong\u003e15 °C\u003c\/strong\u003e and do not wash the vehicle for \u003cstrong\u003e48 hours\u003c\/strong\u003e.
