here is a quick build thread on my volvo...
its actually my second one. my first v70r was taken from me 3 days after i bought it...
so after a month+ long battle with their insurance i finally got paid and went on the search for another car...and i found it. in arizona. same exact vehicle (minus the wing) for 6001.50 (eBay). my buddy and i flew to AZ and drove it back.
then the modding began...IPD eggcrate grille and pioneer AVIC U310BT
then i contacted the guys here at magnaflow in orange county and they decided they would build a prototype kit off of my car ...for free woot
it now has a few other performance mods like an EST intake, IPD HD turbo control valve, IPD HD compressor bypass valve, and i'm waiting on my Snabb intake pipe (its being powdercoated)
then i decided to work a bit on the wheels...so i got a set of BBS RK-IIs in 17x8 et35.
here is what they looked like when i dropped them off at rotiform.
here is what they look like as of now
rootbeer centers, polished raw barrels, new SS hardware, red BBS center caps, wrapped in a 215/45/17 falken 452. car is dropped on IPD front springs and cut springs in the rear with a spaced nivomat shock (self leveling)
