Volvo lip mounting methods

[Slangbox]

I know this sounds retarded... But has anyone ever tried mounting this lip right-side-up?

[Oz10]

I bought mine earlier today. Should have it painted and on the car Wednesday.

I've heard of zip ties, screws clips, etc..

What are the different ways people have mounted theirs?

Just use the volvo lip mounting clips and screws they work great.

Pipe the fuck down, newbie. You haven't been around here long enough to be talking shit.

Best Volvo Lip Mounting Method:

1. Open trash can lid
2. Place lip in recepticle (break in half if necessary)
3. Close trash can lid
4. Order OEM IS lip

Yet another pompous wanker... oh yeah, it's receptAcle, btw...

Faster than me, I actually had downforce.

GODDAMN! You are just TOO freakin cool for the rest of us! It seems to me that this post was for people to learn how to attach their volvo lip to a BMW valence, not for wankers to bust on people using volvo lips.
BTW: I have never had my M Tech I valence fly off at any speed, and that includes 140.

I belive 740, with the large rectangular headlight. Just keep an eye out for them on a volvo (theyll be upside down)

I read all the threads
what lip are you refering to
what year 740's or is it a 940
one person said 740 another said 940
nobody said what years

would still love to know since Ill be junk yarding on saturday
and the junk yards around here are almost as sparse on volvo stuff as bmw stuff

Fixed.

I still think they look like shit but I appreciate what you're saying. It is possible to mod your car well for less money if you don't mind putting in the time and you have the talent for it but either way you have to pay to play.

Yep. The volvo lip was also good while I was getting used to how low the car was and it let me smash into shit without going "OH SHIT MY $140 LIP JUST GOT TRASHED", it made me realise how to take shit properly to not smash it, and allowed some leverage room incase I did.
And it still looks better than no lip at all, which is why I got it, because my damned "i" lip got ripped off.

Plus, I still have it incase I want to go romp around in some farms herding cattle.

You just need to put a note on the spoiler instructing people where to return it if found.

Excellent idea for these Volvo-lipped youngfolk...

"PLEASE RETURN THIS VOLVO LIP TO... YOU KNOW... A VOLVO. THANK YOU."

That would make me like these stupid things a whole lot more.

The price isnt why i didnt like the IS lip, that being said i will probably retire the volvo lip soon

But volvo lips look like utter ass-vaginas.

The I lip looked much better on your car.


I don't get why you guys bitch about IS lips? They're $137 SHIPPED from Tischer.

My volvo lip was good for a time, but as soon as I could afford an IS lip, I got one, even cheaper than 137 shipped. I got mine about 120 shipped from Tischer at the time.

But volvo lips look like utter ass-vaginas if you don't mount it correctly, as in trimming it a bit so it fits flush, and pulling in the sides and some good heat gun action helps a lot. If you can't be bothered to do that atleast, you fucking fail.
