So as winter approaches I'm looking to do a bit more to my car. Many of you guys remember last summer I went on a crazy spending spree to make my S60 look as good as possible and now I'm going further.

First I'm wondering where I would get rivets. I rear ended someone about a month ago and it basically destroyed the rivets connecting the front bumper to the car. Right now it's being held up by 2 remaining rivets and duck tape. I've looked around a bit online and haven't found anything like what I need. I'm not sure if it's some special order thing but this is kind of what they look like:

Secondly, I'm looking to put a couple roof racks on my car. I checked on IPD and found this.

Though I'm wondering if I need to order these (below) with it or if they are just an extra set for if I lose the one that comes with.

Finally, I'm putting a spoiler on the car. Going to paint it black and create a nice gold and black theme to the car. I looked around online and came up with these. Which one would look best do you guys think?

1. Volvo dealer or body shop will have rivets
2. Yes craigslist or swedespeed
3. Don't waste your money paying somebody to paint something black, you'll get sick of it fast, stick to body color, much classier and flows much better

Btw second or the third spoiler for sure, hell no to the first one

1 - Zip ties
2 - Steal some kidding... craigslist
3 - http://upload.karbon.../3/DSC_3409.JPG

1. Zip ties are a hella good idea. Thanks for that tip.
2. Craigslist ftw
3. I'm going to paint it black cause I don't want to pay to have it painted and I think the black would look sick. I'm wondering if there's a big difference in the 2nd and 3rd spoiler though... And I love Danny's lip but apparently he got that on a custom job which costed something like 500.

[JackS60]

Matt calls it "the turbobrick way" haha

Again though, does anyone see a difference between the 2nd and 3rd spoliers?

If you can't not many will, get the cheaper one

[JackS60]

Good point. Gracias.

[JackS60]

Nothing on Craigslist for the roof rack :/ so I'm wondering if I need both parts on IPD?

Just wait a bit, or post in VS/SS wanted section, I'm sure you'll find one

Sweet thanks

Oh also, I'm looking to get cheap HIDs. I remember over the summer Matt telling me bout some website to get them for around $50. He never checks VS so I doubt he'll respond to this but does anyone else know what he's talking about?
