Boyce 0 Report post Posted January 7, 2010 Time for a quick update Went and saw Jono (JiB) today and picked up a PFL front lip from him (Cheers Jono). Came home and did a quick mock up with some cans to prop it up actual height will be about 1cm lower than this but over all Im really happy with how its going to look however Id still really like an iS Lip Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Forrest 35 Report post Posted January 7, 2010 Find a volvo 740 wagon front lip, flip upside down and mount it. I have and only the purists know the difference between it and a iS lip. Any general wreckers yard or a volvo wrecker would have them. Would be a small fraction of the price of a iS lip too I got mine for 9$ from pick a part. The PFL lip on a FL looks mean though, I have rocked that before too on a old car. Keep up the good work the wagon looks tits. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Forrest 35 Report post Posted January 7, 2010 (edited) Here is a helpful thread: http://www.e30tech.com/forum/showthread.ph...light=volvo+lip 740 Wagon 89-90 Here is a pic of mine with the Volvo Lip installed. You only just have to trim the ends to clear the wheel/line up flush with the wheel arch/valance. Just mounted mine with cable ties into the existing holes in the bottom of the valance after adding some small holes into the top of the lip.

Boyce 0 Report post Posted January 16, 2010 Finally got the lip mounted well cable tied on anyway hahaha it pretty much sits on the ground and scuffs a bit while driving but it was free and am really happy with the way it looks Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
