LMAO FINALLY SOME POSTS

Now that I got you equally pissed off at me as I am you, We can call things even.

The "R" Bumper was more of an, "example" of what you were telling me.

I just figured people at volvospeed were a little more welcoming.

As far as the emails I sent to you two. Well, let me put it this way. If you tease a barking dog, do you expect to get bit?

An independent shop in your area should be able to do that no problem. The ones around here use Oracal self adhesive vinyl and it is available in chrome. Where are yo located?

Thank you, I already found a provider. It is like $32 bucks to order it, I'm not sure if it will be that great of a finished product. Maybe in a week or two.

I posted the picture so you could get a general idea of what I was going for, and to show you I'm not "wrapping" my car with it.

Its basically a larger than normal sticker.

First off I would like to appologize to everyone for the content. I got a little tipsy for the first time in a long time last night, and yeah, that was a bad idea. Alcohol + Forums = Bad News. College just started again and its kind of nerve wracking keeping everything together.

I don't take criticism of that caliber lightly. I just wanted something to go with my car a little more, and having it shut down from the get go was somewhat discouraging. As far as that vinyl line goes, No. I definately don't want that.

When I mentioned "vinyl" I think everyone got the wrong idea. I was just looking for a nice 850 sticker to set my car apart a little more. Stickers usually don't stay on your car that long, and I've heard vinyl would last a little longer.

I see you guys have done a lot of nifty modifications to your cars. I hope to get started on mine again but have that problem of "where to start". Those angel eyes/ projector headlights look SWEET.

I know I will need a paint job soon, and would definately like to get the molding/trim redone. I would like to do it all myself, and have all the tools to do it, just do not have the know-how. I've searched the forums and have picked up quite a few ideas so far.

I live in Nebraska if anyone was risky enough to live in such a shithole (panhandle of nebraska) for those wanting to know.

I recall that some of the beginner modifications included moving the horns to the bumper, but don't know much else. What have you all done to your cars that is reasonably affordable, yet impressive?

Sorry again Loudvolvo and Dmelvi007. I just would like to have a little more "help" than "criticism".

You guys have a good day,

-Nathan

andrick, i can understand ur frustation and im respect you for apologizing for being pissed. the reason that you are more likely to get criticism before actual advice is because there are usually quite a few posts a week that are from people who have just come into the volvo community from messing with some form of rice and they feel the need to put spoilers on and decals everywere and we dont want to see such fine machines be all riced up.

Yeah, I understand completely on that issue. I used to read on these forums quite often, but I somehow manage to get insanely busy and forget about it for awhile. I always manage to get back of course, I just can't afford to check forums daily, weekly.

Try just using Kiwi dye on the trim for an updated look. Otherwise poke around on the pinned Resources & Write Ups thread. There's some inexpensive things to mess around with.

And try to remember: its just the internet, perhaps this link will help you: http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-8....+blue+internet

I will definately look up the Kiwi Dye and that thread, I've been looking for a way to get that bumper back to black, but I gave up a few.... months/years ago.

Edit: "EL-EM-AYE-OH" Hilarious video. "Presidentialsluts.com" doesn't exist :( haha

Peace

If you are hellbent on getting this 850 graphic, just don't use chrome. You won't find too many chromed out volvo fans in these parts. It may look cool if you used a color close to the factory color or it may look like complete shite. Either way I'd like to see it. Good luck.
