    Nice pics. I think your grill looks a bit bare though - consider the chrome surround and the chrome slash.

    Nice m8, but are they 16in rims off the D5 or 2.0T ? I like the style just not seen them bigger than 16 before.

    They are 17" Thor's. I didn't really like them when I got the car, but now it's been lowered a bit they have grown on me. I think they will look great in anthracite.

    I really love the look the grill gives the car. Someone said to me it looks like it has some purpose now, rather than looking like your off down the golf club

    They are defo the best of the latest generation of Volvo alloys on offer - bit like Volans but still very edgy. I would like to see a small badge on the grill - maybe "T5" or "R"??

    Waddaya think?

    looks very good. the only thing i would say is move the horns and cut the centre stay out of view. i did with mine and it finished the front view nicely. spot on with the black grill, leave it as it is or at most put a small sam badge in the bottom right corner to give some point of focus(the photographer in me escaping) wheels are the mutts nuts
