Well, as many of you know, I had Bright Silver 18" Pegs on my car, but I wanted to change them for a darker set. I sold mine and bought a new set of the Graphite colored ones, but those were too bright for my taste (didn't even mount them), so I sent them off to the powder coater to be darkened up a weeee bit :D Here is the finished product: Image Image Image Image Image Image Image I am really happy with how the color turned out, and it really didn't cost a lot to get that custom look :) Next mods, Stoptech Brakes + 18T. Anyways, just wanted to stop by and give you guys an update :wave23d:

Wow !! They look Fab mate but I reckon you need to tint your windows to match them.

[QUOTE=Justin]Great pics, always a pain when you super glue your fingers together though Carson pmsl ;)[/QUOTE] :haha: It's what all the cool kids do over here, "V" for Volvospeed. As for tinting the windows, I made a vowe to myself that I wouldn't tint them, all of the yellows over here have tinted windows, and I don't want to be like "all" of the others (if you can't tell from the pictures) ;) There are only 3 or 4 cosmetic mods left for this car: -VST Bumper -850R rear spoiler -Stoptech brakes (those count as cosmetic + performance) -Coilovers (those also count as cosmetic + performance) Cheers :B_steerin

Beautiful. Must be the Garages the size of a football field that you Yanks have that keeps the bodywork looking so sweet. Just two points though. 1, You lot must have more money than sense......had a set of Pegs but didn't like the colour so bought another!!!!!!!! Painted those without even fitting them!!!!!!thats a years wages for me. 2, THAT STICKER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Good forum.......like it a lot but....

[QUOTE=The Flying Banana]Carson, is the VST front bumper the one that Swede Demon had on his white 850....if so where can they be bought and how much ?[/QUOTE] Yep, it is the same bumper that was on the original Swede Demon :) I special ordered mine through a VST supplier here in America, and it is costing me a bit of money :icon_soap Oh well, at least I will be the first in the US with a VST bumper, plus on a yellow in general (other then the VST display model). If you want more info, shoot me an e-mail and I will give you as much information as I can, and also do some homework and see how much it would cost to get it and have it shipped directly to you from the manufacture if that's even possible :) My e-mail is [email]carson@volvospeed.com[/email] And I'm not "rich", I am just young and don't have anything else to spend my money on... Also, I sold my old Pegs with some crummy tires for $975, bought my new ones and already had other tires for $930, who wouldn't do that? :saythat: Thanks for all of the compliments guys :)

Car looks really very nice indeed there m8:) Glad 2c the dark Pegs looks so good as I'm finally gettin mine fitted next week! I like the headlights (been discussed on here b4!) lots as well, certainly wouldn't mind a set o them if they were RHD:( adds aggression to the front no end...as if it were needed eh? Lovely motor mate:B_steerin

[QUOTE=barberecpw]what color do you call that sir?[/QUOTE] To be honest, I haven't come up with a proper name for it... I'm still thinking though. And here are a few more shots of it, just because I love taking pictures :D These were taken going to/at my beach cabin. Image Image Image Image Image Image
