    i like it. now paint the lower part of your rear valence to match the side skirts and front lip. the volvo lip fits nicely though

    I saw a Volvo lip at the e30 picnic, I don't like it, looks pretty ghetto...Haven't seen the skirts, they look good in pics though.

    Um... 740, in the 90s.

    91-94 or something.

    Like this:





    Its actually mounted upside down and trimmed, thanks to Cris on r3v for finding this out.

    Those lips are dirt cheap at a junkyard, maybe $15 at worst. I don't think there is too much involved in fitting it.

    You flip it upside down and trim the ends.

    I also did the lip mod. It looks awesome. Mine is anything but ghetto. I went sanded it and then painted it gloss black and clear coated it 3 times. It is cut to fit and mounted flushly on the car. I'll take some pics in the morning and post them.

    not bad Danny. That volvo lip doesn't look bad, tho I've never seen it in person, that opinion may change. I have seen the taurus skirts before and admit they don't look half bad, but I feel that by painting them black, it looks like you did nothing at all. Wait, weren't you the one who got rear ended? did you get a new e30?
