    Show me your modified S40's/v40's

    hello, im after some pictures of modified s40's/v40's,
    My dad has just got a 2003 S40 sport and im trying to sway him to get some coilovers for a subtle drop (40mm)
    all ive managed to get him to do is buy my 8000k HID's and some white LED numberplate lights
    also after some inspiration of other finishing touches/mods

    thanks in advance

    Just make sure if you go for coilovers on the T4 that you don't get ones that are designed for track work - they make the ride really crashy on the road!

    I shouldn't look at those t4s, makes me want one! lol

    Clever person as i am, the only pics i have of mine were when it was virtually standard. Never got any pics of it after the respray, anthracite bbs craters, painted bump strips, etc - what an idiot

    Then went and crashed it a few months later

    As long as I take pictures from a distance it's OK. It was keyed down one side and dented by the Scum and their friends who lived next door to me in Sheffield.

    I haven't got the money to pay out for a 3/4 body respray following their conviction compensation of £200.
