Hey all,

Just looking to get a more straightforward/ detailed explanation for doing this before i go ahead.
I have an 07, and I'm putting on an 06 kit. I have to take off the side trim and the rear valence. I understand for the sides, there are clips underneath that have to be pulled, and then there are rivets in the wheel well that have to be drilled out?

Then for the rear there are clips underneath that need to be pulled, (what other rivets/clips need to be pulled?) and the rear valence should discount from the bumper with some prying?

I will need clip pullers and a drill to drill out the rivets. Is there anything else?
I also am going to buy some more clips and rivets from the Volvo dealership (hopefully they're not too expensive)


Thanks for any input!

Correct. Side skirts are just clips and rivets, not too difficult to take off. I destroyed most of my little Christmas tree clip rivet things when I took them out and just got new ones from Volvo.

Can't advise on the rear, but I would imagine it would be the same.

thank you Koyen for responding . do the rivets in the wheel well have to be drilled.. or could i do it a different way?.. like just with a clip puller?
