    Sorry not a fan of carbon fibre look , but looks like you did a good job,
    Should keep a eye out for the face lift one with the roller door as the door hinge breaks very easily.

    Thanks Harvey!
    Yes, the hinge was broken already when I bought the car. Fixed the hinge whit 2 small bolts same as on my old S60. Ex drill out the plastic hinge and replace it with a same size small bolt.
    Actually, I was on the hunt for the facelift version. Contacted to few breakers in UK where I saw S60/V70s with the facelift center console. Unfortunately they either did not bother to reply or came back with stupid excuse why is not up for sale....
    If anyone knows a good condition one, let me know.

    Looks good mate. Are you going to have them aligned? Only, they look a little high and you'll almost certainly be dazzling ppl, especially if raining.

    It's more than likely an uneven driveway, making the suspension sit higher on one corner or your car Greg is sitting on springs that are suffering from spring sag, totally normal as springs age but can obviously affect handling, which is why it is advised to replace them when the shocks are replaced.

    When I replaced my springs 2 years ago, I noticed the ride height did increase slightly when compared to having the older OE springs on (pre Eibach days).
    The ride will be firmer on new springs too, which I definitely noticed

    Yes the cars parked on a slope ( nose up hill ), Alastair did change the springs & shocks when he had the car
