Does anybody know if anyone even makes body kits that'll work on S70's? If so, where can I buy one?<P>

Hmmm, well there's the V70R AWD front lower spoiler with foglights. That's more aggressive than stock, but still pretty factory looking.<P>There's also MSDesign. I know IPD orders their stuff occasionally, but getting it from Europe will be tough.<P>Then there're companies like Erubuni and Wings West, but they tend to be pretty wild kits.

I'd definitely recommend going with the V70R front. I'ts very clean and fits perectly. It adds a nice subtle touch.

<BR>The only one I've found is Johanssons Motor Sport in Sweden (http://jms.cit.se). Here's a link directly to the pictures:<BR> <A HREF="http://jms.cit.se/index.asp?spoiler=volvo&prod=ett&cat=spoiler&paket=vs70" TARGET=_blank>http://jms.cit.se/index.asp?spoiler=volvo&prod=ett&cat=spoiler&paket=vs70</A> <P>Those pictures are pretty bad. But my friend ordered one for his V70 and it doesn't look bad at all. I can take pictures and post them here if you like.<P>

This was originally related, but I think we might all drive down to the actual race to check out the event as part of our GTG agenda.<P><A HREF="http://www.vorchesapeake.org/" TARGET=_blank>Volvo Ocean Race at Chesapeake</A> <P>

I think that the color of the car and the grass below kinda makes the kit look smaller. And no, theres no english version of the site but the address and the prices are pretty much all the info they have. Prices are in SEK...<P>BTW, do I post the pictures directly to the forum or just links to our website?<P>

I've taken a few pictures of Volvo V70 TDI with JMS bodykit + eyebrows, factory sport suspension, 225/45x17 tires and uploaded them.

That's a purdy car. About the convention, I will not be able to attend. Sadly, I have work that weekend, and I already am covering for 2 other people. In other news, my sister just picked up her brand new V40 1.9 T only about 40 minutes ago. I'll post links to pics as soon as we get them up. She thinks she is faster than me. What do you think? 1999 S70 (Sedan) vs. 2003 V40 1.9 T (Wagon).<P>

There are a couple events in the MD and PA area. I just posted more info on most of them in the Events & Gatherings forum. <P>BTW, I can't get those pics to work. Any suggestions?

Hey people,<BR> About that body kit for the V70 or S70. I know there is a very clean, nicely shaped body kit for the 70 series made by VIP a German company I believe. I wanted to get it myself for my V70 but it was around $1200-$1400. The front is a tad bit more agressive than the V70 R front, but it's not wild or overly agressive.<BR>-Kit Lau<BR>Rockville, MD

At least in the left corner of the front spoiler you can see a logo that says "VIP"<P><P>

Thanks for posting Don. I'd bet those kits are pretty tough to get ahold of nowadays.
