nice...now, some lowering springs, front r spoilers...hehe...j/k...be careful with those babies huh?
use the side mirrors to parallel park to avoid curb rashing those rims.

ipd has some clear corners for 88 a set...a regular corner at dealer is about 40~45 bucks...

So now the question is, what tires do I buy, the P7000 super sports on them are kinda ****ed up. The wear is really un-even on one of the wheels, the pre-owner said his supension was the cause. One of the wheels has 3 holes in it
. It is running ok for now, but I need to get new rubber on soon-ish. I was looking at www.tirerack.com, and I can get new P7000 Super Sports for 104 each. Or... Yokohama Parada Spec-2 for 98 each. Hum, they have a p7000 all weather also. Not sure what to get

u can always try to get it from the dealer...but if u get it painted thereafter, make sure the spoiler doesn't stretch the paint and cause some cracking (personal exp...). u could also get it pre-painted from volvo factory. if u don't lower, u'd prob have no problem with scrapping issues...

For painting flexible parts such as the front spoiler there is a flex compound added into the paint. It will make the paint bend with the surface a bit before cracking. A quality bodyshop should know to do this without mentioning it but may be a good idea to ask.
