styled 480's pics

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.

Isn't that the original Volvo 'Rare as rocking horse shit' Kit?

I'm liking the spoiler on top of the boot-thats the best 480 rear spoiler i've seen...imo of course. :)

I really like the looks of that volvo bodykit. I noticed this on Mobile.de (messy URL) http://www.mobile.de/cgi-bin/da.pl?top= ... 175139646&

It reminds be about 440/460 bodykits :D

I've noticed it too, but 2800€ for an ES from 86 with no options looks a bit exagerated in my eyes, even if it contains a bodykit ...

OK here it goes.
There is a racingmesh grille on mine and a rear spoiler from a citroen Saxo or something. Both were already on the car when I bought it.
I've put in rear shelf MDF, front speaker (don't like the caps) and 7" LCD!

I only have the car about 1 week now, so much more to come! :wink:

I love this amazon :) It's fantastic B230 with 16v cylinder head. What power does it produce?

It doesn't produce any power yet! It's not finished yet, but I'm hoping to get around 400WHP.
Got my flages for the exhaust manifold just last monday, so work on manifold can start!

Like the rear spoiler on your turbo... I wonder how much it would cost if Lee did those.
