  • volvo s70

    Hello everyone, im Daniel from Georgia. Ive had my s70 for going on 2 years now, feels like I have made enough progress to start a build thread.


    first thing i did after buying it was black housing the headlights and adding purple ccf halos




















    and lastly how it sits today, thanks for looking!

              than i took them off and lowered the rear about and inch, the fended need to be rolled and pulled a bit before the spacers can go back on

                  Havent updated in over 2 years! Sadly not much has changed though.


                  Loved the look of projectors inside fluted lenses, so i pulled some projectors out of a caddilac.
                  Shortly after that i decided to replace my broken and clicking axles.


                  After that i got bored with painting my wheels and decided to full polish them. Would have been alot easier if I had a secord set to put on the car while i was polishing these.





                  At this point i was still missing a center cap though, and just starting to repair my bat rolled fenders

                        considered these for a second, but ended up buying the style 19s from my bro.



                        decided my tails were to bright so i tinted them darker with the metalcast paint.


                        deleted my mufflers and added some giant tips


                        They ended up being to close to the bumper and melted it, so they didnt last that long.

                        Wrapped the fuel rail cover in woodgrain, and started painting my engine bay black.



                        My old knob was starting to look worn and faded and the button stopped working. so i found a cleaner woodgrain one at the junkyard, got it for free.


                        Got bored with the polished and repainted my wheels gunmetal, bought new springs, sleeves and struts to make diy coilovers as seen here --------> http://volvospeed.com/vs_forum/topic...diy-coilovers/
                        and managed to get it about half and inch lower, in the front.


                        In the back i just chopped another coil off.

                              Couple months after that I went to a meet and saw a car with pink projector lenses. I figured yellow would be a better fit. So using the rest of my stained glass paint i tinted the lenses. Couple weeks later i got tired of my sagging bumper, im still a long ways off from being able to afford the R bumper so i bought the bumper quick releases and color matched them.










                              After that i bought the subaru s204 front lip and colormatched it. Finished up the fenders and painted them. It still looked pretty bad but it was much better than before. Got tired of the yellow stripped it off and picked up some 5k bulbs. By now it was getting close to Import Alliance spring meet. So i headed to the junkyard to pick up a few missing parts.
