Wow~! Looks pretty good..that's one mean looking S60. Not sure if I'm too crazy about the chrome wheels and the wood trim, but everything else looks great.

I really like the dual exhaust setup. Are those mesh grill's trim color matched, too? Or did you leave them the way they were?

I think it's gotta be the color of the car, on the other S60, the wheels didn't look big enough...but on this black S60...even with bodykit, the wheels look nice on them. Maybe b/c the car is lowered more?

Overall, good job...cool ride.

 

[Gotballs]

Thanks Indy for posting them for me... Hope you all enjoy...

You are welcome. Your car is looking great! You probably have the most highly modded S60 in the U.S. right now, as far as I have seen from other sites, etc...

Like Kai said, the dual exhaust looks sweet.

I really like what you've done. The car looks very nice. What did the paint run you?
And where do you put your groceries? (just kidding)
Did you do the install on the sub box? How do you utilize the standard head unit?

Awesome job, and good looking dog too

Nice car! Looks like we need a SoCal meet soon so that we can check it out in person. I'm not to crazy about the trim, doesn't suit the car IMO. Also, it's me, but the dual setup seems so far apart, it's like at the edge of the bumper. Maybe it's just the pic.

Wow, too many nice S60s. I have to spend a night building out an S60 owner's gallery.

Good plan!

I like the exhaust vey much!
Don't know what to think about the skirts..
Somehow I think they make the wheels look smaller.
Grill and front spoiler are looking very good!

They do in some way, but they also give the whole car a more "complete" look. I would hope the guy paint the black plastic dull black trim behind the side skirt, though. I know even from the MS Design showroom, they didn't paint the original trim in the back....but I think it'd look a lot better with that painted.

For a black car, it's not that big of deal, though.

Gotballs,

How hard was it to install the Giac chip?

Great looking car Indy! Just thinking that the original grille might match nicely with the wheels?

I think the chrome wheels lookd awesome. The wood dash looks very elegant.

 

[volvos70turbo]

I don't like the wheels that much but hell, that is one beautiful s60. Great job! Cute doggy too

Yeah, Gotball's car is really nice looking. The grille you can't really see because the car is black and that part of the pictures came out dark as well.

The Giac chip was rather easy to install, partially because Andrew and Garret were there tuning the chip for my car. Getting the Ecu disconected was a bit of a head scratcher, all you need to do is take a skinny flat head screw driver and push each side little by little until it is off.. the more you do it that easier it is to get it off...

[Mr. T5]

Nice looking car! But I'd stick with the single exhaust look on the T5, is there any way to make that rear spoiler to work so that I can use the original exhaust?

Geez, that's great customer service actually having Garret install and tune your chip for you. I noticed on the GIAC site that there is no mention of a chip for the S60. I guess yours was one of the first.

[Gotballs]

Ummmm if u wanted to stick with the stock exhaust... i dont know why... but just purchase the front and side skirts and do not get the rear skirt....
The reason why GIAC helped me install my chip was because my car was the test car for the chip... I would email them and inquire where you can purchase the chip...

Indy

could you post some more pics of the interior Wood trim?

I am trying to convince myself of this kit but I would like to see it from different angles (if possible)

if you want to email instead: [email protected]

many thanks

[Armo_Guy]

That's awesome
If you add a front lip/spoiler it would look more like a skyline
