Haha, Thank you!

I agree with you on that, the diving boards make it a lil different.

Not that im biased or anything.

and also not to slap plastics in the face.


But Thanks! Good to get compliments!

[Stephen]

Alright, so ive got a zender rear valance awaiting install..

paint the bumpers flat black or leave em?

I'm torn

[mikegar]

you should leave them my lord. they add contrast to the front. plus why try to hide your diving boards

Hahah, well thats why i don't want to paint them, the reason i do i guess is because in certain lighting they dominate the front....

but they'll probably stay bare.

what volvo did that lip come from? looks sick.

[netcsk]

Looks nice man.. Almost makes me wish I stayed with DB's.
Wait.. no, I still like the euros better.

The later valance and lip makes the front end look so much better
