    Few plans for my p1 V70 T5.

    As the D5 is supposed to be sold and the T5 will become my main car, I'm planning a few mods. Thinking black projector headlights/indicators with eyebrows, and probably an R front bumper. Also black LED wing indicators.

    But if the right V70R manual was to come up, then the above may all change........

    The projectors really do make a difference and look better in the flesh than any picture, mine are always being commented on

    I'm thinking black lights as the car is silver, and it already has very dark tints and graphite wheels. I saw the picture in the link below as well which I thought looked good.

    They made a massive difference to my P1 C70. They brought it right up to date and really cleaned the front end up. The car was nautic blue pearl with silver alloys so I went for chrome.

    I might decide to go for chrome yet, but it's just that the black ones contrast more with the silver. I'm also toying with the idea of putting the black projectors onto my black C70 and the crystals onto the silver V70. Decisions, decisions!

    Yes, I would go with that. Dark lights on a light coloured car doesn't look right to me.
