Moose knows best...

How about just going for a different colour?

Never seen that colour before, could be swayed now, lot better than the yellow imo.

Nice wheels btw.

They get the thumbs up from me. But the colour makes em or kills em, depending on the match/contrast with the car colour....

I had yellow ones on.. black is better - they do get a lot of attention tho! (in a good way)

Thanks ref the wheels - 18" would have looked better but the ride is great with the 17's on (yet to take it on a B-road thrash to see if the dynamics have improved too over the stock wheels)

A small metal one next to the 850 on the boot is acceptable :)

wouldnt be without my metal moose badges on the wings.. makes the car less everyday volvo. gives it that little difference, eg. i parked next to a volvo in a carpark at the beach the other day and it was only from the moose badge that i knew he was a forum member and not just another john doe with a volvo. I later bumped into the guy in the carpark and found he was a T5D5 member.. without the moose id not have known he was a forum friend...

I like 'em, but then the yellow ones go quite nice with green.

Each to their own I guess.

those are what I have.. I think the metal ones look The part. I had the sticker ones before and they just seemed too cheap and tacky looking but the proper metal ones look like more effort had gone into makin the car look better. so I brought 2 of these and stuck one on each wing above the Side Repeater lights.

Here is a supplier of metal moose badges:

I personally like them. As mensioned above.... see a moose... you've found another forum member or enthusiast.

I say keep them!

As mentioned above, they distinguish your average Volvo driving Joe from your enthusiast.

I've yet to see another moosed one on the roads tho...

I went with the small and discreet option.
