modded rear bumper ,finally finished.

The Volvo 480 looks good as is, but if you have the desire to give it a more personal look you can find out what others did to their 480 and be inspired.

Very interesting, It's hard to visualise it on the car from that position. Look forward to seeing it fitted. Make sure you tell us beforehand though, as I think im gunna need sunglasses if the rest of the car is that colour! :wink:

Very nice! Can see you've spent a lot of time on her!

Although im still of the thinking that if you're gunna do something major to the looks (as i will one day im sure) you gotta get rid of the pop ups. As a standard car they look good, but in a modernised custom car they tend to look out of place..

Anywho different topic, looking really good man! Bet it feels good to get her back on the road?
