Should have been posted in the project section. Keep up the work on the car.

Yeah, my bad. I realized too late. New guy error

Volvo lips look awful, why not just get an oem IS lip?

[apexpredator]

Because they don't look awful, and because they cost $10 not $130

flip it over. problem solved.

[apexpredator]

I have a second one that I'm going to mount flipped over so I'll have both.

Holy shit, shut up. No one could care less.



Valance and such look good, but definitely a +1 on the flipped over Volvo lip. Looks a lot cleaner, imo.

Is the front getting painted at all, or stating primer/ flat black?

Keep up the progress.

Thanks to the positive guys, there's nothing you can do about forum trolls that just love to downtalk anything someone else does. Its a shame we cant all just be car lovers that like to share, and check out what other car lovers are doing. Travish325, you're a goon, get a life. @mccor023, Its not on the road yet, I've still got a ways to go on the project. I get my coating done by Hotshot Powder. Its a friend of mine from high school that has his own business. PM me if you'd like his contact info. Im assuming you are in Richmond as well?

Goon? lol. The car looks good, just saying the whole volvo upside down lip is like putting cheap ugly ricey parts on your car. If thats what you like then go ahead good for you. My opinion is that an OEM IS lip with maybe a Ryan G splitter looks way cleaner and much better.

Wow there is a lot of emotion tied up in this lip debate! I was worried when my IS lip got stolen that it would cost a fortune to replace considering how expensive people were saying that it was... Then I found out it was $130, and I think that is wicked cheap for a lip... I'm surprised that it is so necessary to find a cheaper alternative. What you have done with the Volvo lip looks fine to me, the only part that I find a bit weird is the flaring which doesn't suit the lines of the E30 IMO.
