TMG-R Caddy Limited Edition: Twilight Purple Custom VW Caddy Build

TMG-R Caddy Limited Edition: Twilight Purple Custom VW Caddy Build

The TMG-R Caddy Limited Edition glistens in its bespoke Twilight Purple (P28) paint finish. One of only five ever built, this custom VW Caddy build by TMG Specialist Vans showcases a host of unique modifications – from custom hybrid bumpers to a luxury re-trimmed interior. In this post, we delve into the standout features that make this limited edition Caddy a truly one-of-a-kind creation. 

Twilight Purple P28: A Show-Stopping Custom Paint.

The first thing you notice is the Twilight Purple P28 paint, an individual colour rarely seen on a VW Caddy. In fact, this vibrant hue originally comes from BMW’s exclusive palette, and it’s not available from the factory on Volkswagen vans this is the only one in the world. Applying this pearlescent purple finish required exceptional skill and preparation. Our expert painters used a climate-controlled spray booth and a meticulous multi-layer process (base coat, effect coat, and clear coat) to ensure a flawless result. The effort was well worth it – the deep, glossy purple turns heads and highlights every curve of the van’s bodywork, instantly setting this Caddy apart from any stock vehicle. 

Custom Exterior Upgrades & Styling Beyond the striking color, the exterior of the TMG-R Caddy Limited Edition has been completely overhauled with performance-inspired upgrades and bespoke styling cues. 

Some of the key exterior modifications include: 

- Hybrid Front and Rear Bumpers: We custom-fabricated unique front and rear bumpers by merging OEM Caddy panels with Golf GTI Mk8 design elements. These hybrid bumpers not only give the van a sportier, more aggressive look but also feature fully functional integrated LED lights for a modern touch.

- Tailgate Conversion: To enhance practicality and aesthetics, the traditional rear doors were replaced with a single-piece tailgate. This tailgate conversion provides a cleaner look at the back and is a nod to contemporary VW design.

- Wide Arch Extensions & Side Blades: Custom wide arch extensions (flares) and sleek side blades have been added to broaden the Caddy’s stance. These elements flow seamlessly with the body, accentuating the van’s lowered profile and giving it a more muscular, OEM+ appearance.

- Xenon Headlights & Shadow Pack: Up front, premium Xenon headlights improve visibility and style, framed by an external shadow pack – blacked-out grills, badges, and trim pieces – for a stealthy, refined look. Together, they complement the Twilight Purple paint perfectly.

- Forged Alloy Wheels & Lowered Suspension: This limited edition Caddy sits on a set of eye-catching custom alloy wheels (finished in a complementary colour to tie in with the gold interior accents). A lowered performance suspension (part of our TMG pack) gives the van a confident, road-hugging stance and improved handling to match its sporty appearance.

- TMG-R Limited Edition Branding: Exclusive TMG-R logos and branding details are applied to the bodywork, signifying the van’s special status. From subtle exterior decals to the bespoke number plate surround, every badge lets onlookers know this Caddy is a TMG Specialist Vans limited edition build.

Step inside the TMG-R Caddy, and the cabin is just as custom as the exterior. We’ve transformed the interior with premium materials, advanced tech, and branding that matches the van’s exclusive pedigree. From the suede-lined cockpit to the glowing ambient light strips on the dash (as seen above), every detail has been thoughtfully designed. The result is a VW Caddy interior that feels more like a special edition sports model than a commercial van.

Key interior upgrades include:

- Suede “Stealth Pack” Interior: The front cab area has been upholstered with rich suede accents as part of our stealth pack. This includes a suede headliner and pillar trims, giving the cabin an upscale feel and reducing glare – all in a dark tone that keeps the interior vibe sleek and focused.

- Virtual Cockpit Display: Instead of the standard gauges, the driver is greeted by a virtual cockpit – a full digital instrument cluster transplanted from Volkswagen’s higher-end models. This modern display provides customizable readouts and a high-tech focal point for the driver, elevating the driving experience.

- Custom Dashboard Trims: We refinished the dashboard trims in high-gloss Twilight Purple to match the exterior and added TMG-R limited edition branding. These purple accents across the dash (around the infotainment and passenger side) tie the interior to the exterior theme, making the design truly cohesive.

- Ambient Lighting Package: A subtle ambient lighting system has been installed, casting a gentle purple glow across the dash and footwells. This configurable LED lighting not only looks great during night drives but also reinforces the custom theme of the build.

- Gold Stitch Upholstery: To add a final touch of luxury, we re-trimmed the seats, steering wheel, and other leather elements with gold contrast stitching throughout. The golden stitches provide an elegant accent that complements the purple exterior and highlights the craftsmanship of the upholstery work. Every time you open the door, these details remind you that you’re in a one-off, hand-crafted interior.
