    Not a lover of them to be honest, looks loads better without them in my opinion.

    I think they are too much without the front and back pieces as on the light blue car, I would leave them off.

    Like your front lip, didn't realise that was a straight swap onto the pre facelift - shall have to look out for one to go on mine.

    You didnt listen to me once you messaged me bout the body kit, did ya lol.... the only thing I said was to you dont bother with the sides lol esp when u dont plan to fit the rest...if u actually want to fit them you need the rear and front R splitters which is the best parts of the kit. And fit the other sideskirts I told you bout.

    who hasnt been listening or not reading everything. plan was to buy it in stages and front lip and rear lips for my bumpers. i refuse to fit R parts on a t5. if i wanted to be like a R i would of just bought one. ive posted a image of the rear bumper i intended to purchase. i wouldnt fit skirts without bumpers. i thought you knew me better than that. im not going to fit any of the kit unless i came across a geniuine volvo one. the quality of the kit isnt good and not something im willing to put on my car. id made up my mind befor id offered it up to the car but thought id get some other opinions. for me theres a fine line between ruining a car and making subtle changes. ive put alot of hard work into keeping my car in the condition its in so im not going to spoil that.

    without, but you need to lower it more to compensate.
    huge gap at the rear in your photo, or is that just how it is sitting?

    its lowered on eibach but the rear has always slightly higher. ive been fancying some coilover but i hate having a harsh ride so i dont want to kill it. but the main reason for them is i want to start attending track days. no good having a quickish carif dont use it to its full pontental
