          Black corners and 12k...not so much. Maybe look into some ABMs to get the black look without the tackiness. Interesting to see that mk5 springs lowered it that much. I thought about playing around with springs from different cars on my 850. I don't see a purpose of the plate relocation when you already have holes in your bumper. I'm looking forward to seeing where this ends up as you are off to a nice start.

            I'd say back off the black on the corners about 25% and tint the headlights 15% just to tie it it a little better. and the lip looks a little short around the sides.

            has potential.

              I **** the way ABMs look. Too expensive for something I don't like. If anything ill be getting the 04+ c70 jewels. I moved the plate so when I put in the FMIC it wont be in the way.
              Anyways. Small update. It's been 5-10 below zero out so I haven't done much..
              Got my 00- up side markers on:

              Sources a full black interior swap, and decided to leave some tan in the mix, still gotta pressure wash the Black carpets before they go in, and change out a few things.

              Also flocked the dash while I had it out.

              been prepping my wheels on the side. Still cant decide on a color, thinking satin black centers with bronze lip and rivets..
              Anyways. More to come! Stick around lol.

                  Got the tires dismounted. Started sandblasting and sanding knicks out of the lip. Getting ready for primer and paint. Decided to go neon green lol.

                  Also picked up a 15g TD04 turbo. Moar bewst!

                  Bought a new ds door too as mine is rotted and the window fell in.
                  More to come soon! Stance pics promptly if all goes to plan.

                      Might as well plaster the car with a bunch of monster and ken block stickers to go along with the green wheels. You have potential to make this car look halfway decent for not too much money into it. Don't fuck it up with green wheels. Just sayin

                      On a different note, the bigger turbo is going to be fun.

                            Honestly all Volvo v70s I see are: R bumper, 18" Pegs, mild drop.
                            I wanna do something out of the norm. Monster doesn't own the rights to green paint, takata and tien are green also. Doesn't mean I'm going to rally my car. The btcc is sweet. I'm going for that amount of low. Just different colors.

                                Progress:
                                New door, dropping it off tomorrow for paint.

                                And, to the dislike of everyone, wheels are underway.

                                2 coats primer, three coats green, 4 coats clear.

                                Bring on the h88.
                                Turbo goes on Sunday, as well as getting my diffuser mocked up.
