VW Crafter Campervan, Full Raptor, Anthracite grey, Swamper look.

In this video we took Dan's home on wheels and made him homeless for a few week while we gave his van a full makeover.
We transformed it from a tired and rusty looking white van into a full on Bad Ass Swamper style van with a tough Anthracite grey Raptor paint job and a brand new set of Rogue Alloys to finish it off.
If you want to check out more pics of the van on its travels then head over to Dan's Instagram where he also has lots of other cool pics of urban explores.
The final shots of the van are courtesy of Dan's Insta reel showing he is way better at artistic photography then me lol.

What a fantastic job. It is a pleasure watching a craftsman carrying out a transformation from a run-of-the-mill van to one that will stand out at any van life meet up.

[@roughtownraptors]

You're too kind buddy, wait until you see the video of yours, that should be an eye opener, the horrors of vinyl wrap 😳

[@kenmackenzie7338]

Having a camper van wrapped is a false economy👍 @@roughtownraptors

[@Jimmacdonald109]

Fantastic Shane I’m so glad we have chosen you to do ours on the 19th October 👍

[@roughtownraptors]

[@dailyurbexdan5924]

Awesome job Shane can’t thank you enough for the effort you put in and the vans still looking as fresh as the day it rolled out all be it with more windows can’t recommend rough town raptors enough.

[@roughtownraptors]

Cheers buddy 👍

Superb job, lots of prep but well worth it, the crafters look great in military paint with that front end and Rouge alloys, I'm looking for a sprinter or crafter for myself now, as I build camper van but don't have one myself!

[@roughtownraptors]

Thanks, they do look good in the military colours but they also look good in other colours too. I'm sure you'll find one eventually bud, plenty of them out there👍

[@vanlifenomad]

@@roughtownraptors Do you spray in RAL military paint codes?

[@roughtownraptors]

I use either ral codes or manufacturers colour codes, depends what colour people want.

[@thesmallfarmerlife]

Hi where do you but anthracite raptor paint ...? Or do you mic it to that shade or get you purchase it ready mixie to that colour..? thanks

[@roughtownraptors]

Hi mate, I always get my raptor paint and tints off Marlow paints on eBay as TBF they're the best price and their tints are good and strong. Cheers 👍

[@philpowell6915]

Stunning...!!! Daft question....could you achieve a camo effect with raptor?

[@roughtownraptors]

Not a daft question at all bud, yeah you can but you'd have to do it in stages masking out each colour etc, obviously more work then a straight colour. If you're after a price just drop me an email to [e-mail] and I'd be happy to work one out for you 👍, thanks.

[@wjm1676]

November can’t come soon enough Shane 😊. I have time to choose a colour but grey or grey could be a choice. If you get any cancellations just let me know and you can have my van whenever suits 👍🏻 Wayne

[@roughtownraptors]

In the greatest respect hopefully it won't come that soon, looking forward to a long summer hopefully lol. If I get any I'll let you know bud 👍

[@wjm1676]

That’s very true Shane and actually I take that back and don’t wish November here already 😊 @@roughtownraptors

[@pauliwallnuts2804]

Lovely job that Shane. How long does it take to do a job like that?

[@roughtownraptors]

Thank you 🙏 I usually say around 3 week turnaround time.

[@cliff1551]

Hey mate can you not lead the rust holes up (melt lead into the holes like restoring old vehicles)

[@roughtownraptors]

Hi mate, yeah I guess you could, though tbh it's not something I've ever tried and not even sure if supply shops stock it these days.

[@deanbenson610]

Could I ask what the cost of a job like this would be for a SWB crafter 2008?

[@roughtownraptors]

Hi mate, yeah if you could drop me an email to [e-mail] ideally with a couple of pics then I'd be happy to sort out a price for you, cheers buddy 👍

[@DeanGriffiths12]

Looks mega that,, just wondering how easy it’s it to clean once it’s had a few miles on the shitty roads of Britain 🇬🇧 Cheers

[@roughtownraptors]

Cheers buddy, actually it cleans up pretty easy, just need a soft brush and hot soapy water. Also has hi UV resistance so holds it's colour well. Can't do anything against potholes though, you'll still wreck your wishbones but you'll look good doing it 🤣

[@DeanGriffiths12]

😂 fare enough, I have a LWB crafter that I’m thinking of having done, do you have a rough price & time frame when you can do it in mind Cheers

[@roughtownraptors]

Hi mate, if you drop me an email to [e-mail] adding a couple of pics of possible then I'd be happy to work out a price for you 👍 currently taking bookings for January 2025 onwards 👍

[@overlordone1246]

How much for black on a MWB sprinter please?

[@roughtownraptors]

Hi mate, if you drop me a message to [e-mail] be happy to sort you a price out, thanks 👍

[@overlordone1246]

@@roughtownraptors just emailed you, thank you

[@roughtownraptors]

No worries pal, I'll get back to you shortly, thanks 👍
