Hi all,<p>First I want to say I'm dutch speaking, so sorry for my typing.<p>Great forum this is en man do I love the cars I can see here. At ours, in Belgium, we rarely see tuned volvo's.<p>I bought myself a V50 MY06 2.0 D a month agoo.<br>My girlfriend is pregnant so I needed a family car. But couldn't leave it like it was, so got me some wheels (borbet) and lowering springs (weitec). Grill is on his way, hopefully it arrives this week.<p>Got the wheels and lowering this weekend, here some pics I took;<p><IMG SRC="http://img507.imageshack.us/img507/7352/afbeelding021l.jpg" BORDER="0"><br><IMG SRC="http://img36.imageshack.us/img36/1175/afbeelding024.jpg" BORDER="0"><br><IMG SRC="http://img193.imageshack.us/img193/9476/afbeelding025.jpg" BORDER="0"><br><IMG SRC="http://img132.imageshack.us/img132/115/afbeelding026.jpg" BORDER="0">

Re: (Roco80)
That is a very nice looking V50! Simple but elegant! What is next on the modifying list?<p><br> <IMG NAME="icon" SRC="http://********************/smile/emthup.gif" BORDER="0"> <IMG NAME="icon" SRC="http://********************/smile/emthup.gif" BORDER="0">

Re: (s40boy)
Thx!<p>Trying to keep it simple... Grill arrives this week, but still have to find out how the replace the original one.<p>I would like front + back spoiler lip and sideskirts... but that won't be for the coming months. First I have to save some money... there's a baby on his way.

nice ride you've got there!! <br>I've got a 2.0D myself... and I love it!<p>front spoiler lip would be great, maybe you should have a look at <i>carreragt7</i>'s thread "C30 front lip conversion" (or something similar...) - I think his lip will be a nice add-on! <p>as for the waterfall grill, I'm on the "hate" side <IMG NAME="icon" SRC="http://www.vwvortex.com/vwbb/biggrin.gif" BORDER="0"> <br>not a big fan of chrome...<br>(sorry chris <IMG NAME="icon" SRC="http://www.vwvortex.com/vwbb/biggrin.gif" BORDER="0"> no offense ... hehe)<p>cheers!
