kev, you think that would work reverse? i've always liked the 850 tails and trunk more, does anyone know if they'd fit into the S70 quarters or would i have to modify them?

I think the rear is a bit harder than the front. The taillights have similar shapes, but the metal under them is pretty different. It looks doable, but doesn't seem to be an easy swaping of parts.

I have often wondered about the difficulty of just the 70 series rear bumper on an 850.

An 850 with shaved door trim, 70 series front, rear, and handles would certainly be nice. :wub:

ya, i'd be just like a 70 series car. :P

shaved door handles.. I'm in total agreeance with you on that one Adam. :tup: how about suicide rear doors.. mmmmm

Personally, I would weld and lead the trim, but keep the handles. Either 70 series handles or flush mount handles from another vehicle. CRX or old school VW style ones. I think rear suicide would be a tough job, given the shape.

I really hate lambo doors. Every time I try to get out of one of those stupid things my shoulder hits it.

I hear many states are having to create laws about not driving with your lambo doors open. That makes me sad. :lol:
