I've seen pics online of 850's with evolve body kits but I can't find ANYTHING about it. Please tell me where I can find it, I'm going nuts... I want it so bad!

 

First, you're probably having a hard time finding anything because there is no Evolve anymore. Evolve changed its name to Elevate, why? I don't know. And two, I don't know where you're seeing these "Elevate" 850s, but they don't make anything for 850s, they only cater to the P2 Volvos.

 

Are you talking about the Eurbini body kit or whatever it's called?

 

Yes he is speaking of the Erebuni kit. You may be able to locate it on EBAY. I have seen them on there. It is a discontinued kit, so good luck finding it.

 

No, I'm not talking the erebuni kit. Heres a video with an 850 wagon with the evolve kit. its the silver one with the green and brown vinyl.

There was not one Volvo in there I really liked at all. It looked like an Elevate front bumper for an R, if that is the case, and you want to do that, your going to spend a lot on custom fabrication to make it fit, like a lot. I don't think it would be worth it. If you want something different, get the Euribini kit and remove those ugly fins on the side of the bumper and it will look decent.

 

I'm not a fan of any of them either, I was just showing that I have seen it. If it requires custom fittings then I'm not gonna bother. I just wanted to see if they did make it for the 850

 

Well that is made for the X70 and 60 series. Volvo's. Not the 850 model. So to get it to fit properly some work would need to be done.

FYI, to purchase it and then to have it properly mounted and look right would cost a lot more then your probably looking to spend.

If they don't tell you the price, then you don't want to buy it. And you have to click ORDER IT to get a price and when I did this a blank page came up.

****Interesting UPDATE. They have the price on the 2001-2007 V70 but not on the S60 model complete kit. Very interesting. $699 is the price on the 2001-2007 V70 version just for the front bumper. IMO that is a lot of money that can be spent elsewhere on your car or something else altogether.****

With that said I went to the S60R version and the price is outrageous. Near $3,000 for a complete kit. Seriously a rip off. $2,590 is the price. RIP OFF.

 

I've heard a lot of bad things about "Elevate"

Yeah, it won't be direct fit, you'll have to do custom molding. Just look at the front of an S60 compared to an 850, big difference. They do not offer any thing specifically for 850s

Yes they have the Erebuni kit for under $600 for the entire kit. I have seen this kit in person and IMO it is not worth the money.

 

Wow! That is some serious ugly, with a capital RICE...............

 

You said it. I honestly don't think the front lip would be that bad if those "fins" on the sides were gone. Then it would look like a play on the x70 R lip.

 

+1 I second that. These body kits just make your car look dumb. Its way overkill IMO. I see many ricers add nose kits then leave the sides and rear untouched. Looks stupid. If you do it, do it right. The whole car with wheels to match.

If this looks cool to you then go ahead and do it.
