    Pre-modded Volvo lips - $65 shipped

    I'm now offering pre-modded Volvo lips, ready to install on late model e30's. These lips are modded so all you need to do is snap them into the factory clips on metal valance cars. Price is $65 ea., which includes shipping through USPS Parcel Post, fully insured with delivery confirmation.

    I pull these from parts yards and modify them myself, so supply is based on availability, first come first served. Shoot me a PM for availability and payment information, I accept Paypal, personal check, Money orders, or cash for local pickup. Local pickup price is $50, PM me to arrange for picking up.

    Here are some pics of the finished lip:








    Feel free to ask questions. I suggest using zip ties to pull the bottom ends of the lip in to eliminate the flare to make it look right.

    Please keep in mind, these are used parts pulled from a junkyard. They do have some road rash, scratches, etc...I only pull lips that are crack free, with no damage that will effect fit form or function. If you want them to look 100% finished you will need to do some filling, sanding, and painting.

        Sackhangers. Sheep. Snobbery. Any other stupid bullshit you care to mention, too. IMO, they look WAY nicer than the cheap-looking and fragile "iS" lip.

            Thanks for the comments, I agree when properly installed they look better than the stock IS lip, and at half the price to boot! Honestly, the only place I get any negative feedback is on the forums, everyone who see's them in person loves them. It is critical to pull the bottom ends in with zip ties to make it look right, otherwise it looks terrible. I am drilling holes where the zip ties should go to make things easier.

            I pull as many as I can in the yards and mod them, so if I have any they are ready to go. I have two left right now, and I hope to have some more this week.

                Exactly. When they're trimmed up properly, fixed so the sides don't flare out, and painted nicely, they look fine. They're a good, cheap alternative. It's the ones that come straight off a junkyard car and get ziptied to the front of another junkyard car that look like shit.

                    no idea if these would fit an e34, I would guess no. If someone local has one they can bring by I can so a test fit, maybe it just needs to be cut longer.


                    Just to give you all an idea of how I use the zip ties to pull the corners in here are a couple pics of the one installed on my car.

                        just curious, but what modding did you do besides the zipties and a little polish?

                          The factory Volvo mounts need to be ground off, the lip needs to be mocked up so I can mark the end to match the contour of the wheel well, ends need to be cut, and holes drilled for the zip ties.

                              For $65 it is a good deal! It saves me from having to go out searching for one and then having to modify it to work. All I have to do is recieve and mount!

                              BUMP for a good time/effort saving deal!!
