Is this original?

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.

hmm, could be original!
joolz's car an VDG's both have small "twin line" pinstripes at high level down each side, apparently straight from the dealer.
maybe it has something to do with this?

That reminds me, the other week I pulled up next to a white 480 which I'm sure had a twin stripe/coachline down the side (green or blue I think) - maybe it was a dealer special edition...? Haven't got a pic and didn't see the rear end tho...

Cheers,
Martin

"Twin Line" = Belgian Two Tone

"Twin Line" is the Two Tone's name in Belgium.
