Project Complete? Blacked out S80...
Had the tint done today, and resprayed the rear tail lights with tint.
Here's the "final" outcome. I'm still heavily debating lowering the car about 3/4 of an inch. Also going to fix the grille so you don't still see the impression from the factory volvo badging.
Doing the exhaust as soon as Uncle Sam pays me my tax return. Nothing too loud, just adding a bit more bite to it when you really get on the gas.
What do you think? I understand if it's not your thing. Not everyone likes it. I do however get alot of compliments. Just like most people say... you really have to see it in person. I don't know... I've just absolutely fell in love with this car.

It gets called a Lincoln LS from time to time. A lot of people also think its a cop car from the front. We have alot of chargers, Camaros, etc undercover cop cars, all with dark tint.
I was going to put 17" black Pegasus wheels on it but honestly I like the black coke bottle wheels in black.
I don't want the car to look like Its slammed. 1.5 seems like alot. I like the factory tire size... just want to fill some of the fender space.
Just want to increase the stance, make it a bit more aggressive looking.

Well this thread has inspired me! Hah.
I would like to roll the fenders when I lower it. I just ordered one of the "M3" style rear lip spoilers. Should be here in 3 days or so.
I'm going to see if 225 profile tires will fit. (new tires next week) Also thinking about a small wheel spacer for the back as they seem to be tucked pretty far back.
Opinions?

You need to pick up the orange bumper markers in clear, then tint those, take off/paint the chrome trim on the sides, black out the headlight housings on the inside where it's not needed to reflect and then get a blacked out license plate cover (whether illegal or not, it would help the car TONS). Otherwise you're pretty set.

I ended up puting some 18s black rims with crome inserts. I, now looking back on it should have put 19s oit but they wanted a lot more for them. So I have a question, dose lowing it make it that much more of a bumpy ride on the inside?
I only payed $750 for rims and tires. And 19s would have been like 1800. I didn't then the extra 1 inch was work a g.
