The Quest to Stance a Volvo

[JVC]

They seem a little chunky with the paint coating. Looks like you'll need to hit them with 1000 then 2000 and polish.

Some of the wheels just weren't smooth enough really. Probably nothing I can do now since thats all in the filler beneath...

Got my tires mounted today. A little bit of paint got chipped off so I had to spray a bit of extra paint to cover up those marks.

Painted my center caps too.






Also got word that my adapters shipped today! Those are supposed to be here Friday! Just gotta do rear brakes, an oil change and mount my wheels and roll some fenders. Then it's off to SoWo!

mount them already

This afternoon!

Took my front bumper off today, gonna give it a cheap quick rattle can respray for SoWo because I always ***** how it was like 6 different colors. I figure one uniform close to matching color is better.

Old and New






I need to adjust the front down more and my spacers will be coming in on Friday.

You were my inspiration for white on red!

I'm stopping by Autozone tonight to get two new calipers to fix my rear brake setup... might as well do both while I'm in there!

looks good bro!!

thanks!

What a nightmare tonight... got the assistance of a friend to do the calipers. Come to find out I need an 11mm flare nut wrench for the rear lines. Of course the 24 hour autozone that I got the calipers from only carries 10-12 and other sizes not including 11, and I couldn't even find an 11mm wrench in my whole garage.

Tomorrow I'll have to go buy a 11mm flare nut wrench at Sears and then hopefully tomorrow night the car will be back on the road.

One more picture from tonight. Magically un-seized the caliper and finished my rear brakes without having to put in new calipers. That saved me a bunch of money too.
