Volvo lip mounting methods

[nes85er]

Well my reasoning was its a daily driver car so the lip sees some pavement from time to time, so i wasnt inclined to put 150$ that close to the ground.. or have the valance unfinished

word. L.A. streets are freakin harsh.

im goin to the junk yard tommorow to get mine while there hot:p

balding 195/65, stock i think

Maybe, but some i scrape on when im going like 2 mph... my tires arent very tall i dont think, might be part of it

but in any event it only scrapes on the real steep stuff every so often, ive gotten better haha.

what size are your tires?

[Stephen]

What a bunch of fashion whores.

Hahah

Maybe for track use if you want something that's cheap to replace when you go adventuring but on a street car it just doesn't look right. It was cool at first but now it's played out and like taurus skirts will soon no longer be the hot item to have for cheap.

And you still hit? You need stiffer springs my man.

kinda odd setup, tokico springs and bilstein shocks

2 fingers of fender gap, 4 in the back [spring pads in]

I've been watching this thread as I want to get a Volvo lip to replace my now-missing (and previously tiny) 318iC lip. However, I have to ask: where did you get that cool M42 emblem?

Bought it off of a member who was selling them on M42club.com. I'm not sure if they're for sale anymore, you can sometimes find them for sale here.

I live on a small private road, and its pavement is glorified gravel, but it seems to be the turn ins for parking lots that always gets me

What's your suspension setup like?

[Stephen]

Yes, and I live on a dirt road in NH. Suffice to say I will not be ice racing this car this year, hence the IX for the snowy months. Even with sport springs that thing has FEET of clearance in comparison.

I can't go that low. My volvo lip sits 5in above the ground and cheese grates itself coming out of the driveway.
