Thanks for the comments.
Lax, no it's an auto. I looked around for months for the C70 and this is the only one I found. I am happy with it though.
Mesoam, that's cool if you don't like the grill, the photos don't do it justice at all. But I like it.

At first I was thinking, big deal, you don't like white C70's, why post a negative comment, just to be an 4ss Then I saw your car. hehe.

I am thinking about going with some new rims. Either 18 or 19 inchers. I also thought about the 18" pegs. I will go with either a polished rim or silver, no chrome or color. Chrome is too darn heavy and color would look wrong in my opinion. I do want something fairly light though. We'll see.

The marker lights were put there by the previous owner. But he just took off the Volvo emblem and ran the wires through the fender, I'm guessing. I have done it to other cars and it's real simple. They are funcional, not just for looks.

And by the way for everyone that thinks the grill looks bad. Trust me, these photos do it no justice at all. I am very picky about little detail crap like that and I love it. Just incase someone wants to do the same thing, it really does look a whole lot better in person. I'll try and take more flattering photos later.

Mine aren't chrome they are some weird hmc silver paint that looks chrome but aren't as heavy as chrome they were actually some what light. I think 19" pegs would be sic but then it will ride pretty bad that's why I got 18's. I have those side lights I haven't put them on yet thats why I was wondering if you did it and had any words of wisdom. You should pull those emblems off the back it cleans it up nicely. BTW the grille looks nice.

Yeah, I think the 18's look best on our cars, 17 inch Peg's just look a tad bit small in my opinion...

Definately, much nicer than Pegs in my mind ph34r.gif 17" Satelites > 18" Pegs on a C70.
