I was looking at the car overall, personally for me.
The lights door look cleaner and I prefer LED side markers etc simple because they last longer and changing bulbs is a bain.
I may start changing to omnidirectional LEDs of a decent nature as changing bulbs is an arse :lol:.

That pic was to show the differance in lights

If ud like to me a bumper skin and have it painted il gladly get rid of the parking sensors fkin things r useless anyway (they look the same reguardless of car so not really a factor) and i generaly find the chrome bits are disliked by people who havent got them :P


Its simple volvo looked at the now old, tired and outdated p2 and went hmmm its good but we can do better :P

It's a matter of taste, Robbies looks nicer.
Don't mind the colour coding, in fact I quite like it but I don't like the chrome bits plonked on which ruined it for me and reverse park sensors for people unable to park their cars look crap.
Cheers Gaz, appreciate that Posted Image

Be interesting to see what happens once I've fitted the facelift rear light units I've now got my grubby mitts on. I do have a "rear park sensor" fitted now but not of the audible kind (unless I rip their bumper off with it LOL).

Don't let your age define you. It's a number, that's all.

Nasty D5 dieseasel with few twiddly bits from TWR, MTE, IPD and Eibach but 600 miles to a tank ain't to be sniffed at :-)
