When it comes to Sprinter Van conversions, the conversation around flares, capsules, and bump-outs is hotter than ever. These extensions are the secret weapon of serious vanlifers—giving you the sleeping space, storage, and flexibility that transform your van into a true home on wheels.

For years, the “big names” like Flarespace, Vanspeed Capsule, and similar extension brands have dominated the conversation. But here’s the truth that van owners are starting to realize: while everyone is essentially selling fiberglass bump outs, there’s not much actual difference—until you look at the details. And that’s where Van Windows Direct (VWD) is completely rewriting the rulebook.

The Problem with “Naked” Bump Outs

Most flares, capsules, or extensions you’ll find in the market come primered and naked. That means:

• You still have to paint them (either with a rattle can or professional spray job—easily $100–$300 extra per panel).

• You still have to add a window—and a good van window isn’t cheap, often $250+ each.

• You still don’t get lighting—so if you want functional illumination, it’s another DIY project or upgrade expense.

By the time you’re done adding up these extras, what started at $1,800+ can easily hit $2,400–$3,000 per pair. That’s before you even start the install.

Sprinter Owners: This Is the Smart Choice

At the end of the day, every brand is selling some version of a fiberglass bump out. The difference is what’s inside the box.

• If you want to spend more time (and more money) sourcing paint, windows, and wiring, other brands may work.

• But if you want ready-to-go, factory-finished extensions with integrated windows and LED lighting, all from the most respected name in van windows, there’s only one choice: Van Windows Direct.
