I relocated the horns today and i tried to follow the direction given to me in the other post i started about 3 days ago, well lets just say i had to think outside of the box and i moved them to a diff location with sucess both work and are running, but the one thing i got out of it was a nic shard of glass stuck into the side of my hand, i guess when i was playing with my foglight a piece fell out and well i didnt notice....

well heres the finished product still need to paint the metal piece in the middle of the grill, but im saving that for tomarrow, here my progress thus far.....

next up is painting the railing thing, and possible pegs in the next week or so...just have to wait and see...

and any other suggestiong on what i should do next?

****how should i remove the side panel volvo emblems, use fishing line and goof off, but i know theres a hole to where it attaches, what should i do because they are faded!?

ps yes i know you can see one horn in the middle of the bottom opening, i ran out of light, so i cant move it till tomarrow

Yes, there is a hole behind there. That is where the stock euro side markers go.

1. CF lip. you'll need an R bumper, unless you want to modify it.

2. Euro's are like 30 bucks from FCP, wire 'em up yourself.. instructions also on VS.
