Pic Request: Body-colored Volvo lips

[EvoStevo]

Anybody done it? I'd like to see how it looks.

No, Volvo lip(s) looks retarded on an E30, doesn't matter if you paint it rainbow colors.

Use the search function and you'll find out how shitty it looks.

You have a BMW, why would you use Volvo parts?

I've only seen one painted body color on here sofar. And it is this one in this thread. http://www.r3vlimited.com/board/showthread.php?t=127800

hmm, his sticks out a lot on the sides. Generally, I don't think I like it.

It wouldn't look terrible if they pulled the sides in...

The only good Volvo lip install I've seen is the one the guy that first discovered volvo lips did.

You're right, he should have just left it primered.

only if it was spotted

Uegh, I'm glad my volvo lip used a spring to pull in the sides.

That looks much better. Reconsidering it again. If I could only see it with paint-matched taurus skirts (flame suit on).

dont be afraid to use those magical zip ties to pull the sides in.
volvo lips only work if you can lose the stupid skirt look.

follow the slant of the valance.
trust me.

I stowed the lips I have when I realized they didn't look that great, but I may reconsider now...
