you mean where the dint was at the front at the bottem?
and no i did not just bolted this on and you can hardly tell.
so its first big trip drove to matsuri witch is a drift event i just went to watch and camp and drink and hang out really but it was good fun maid it no problems really except the fuel gauge dose not work at all, so just going by ks witch is no to bad also the first time i had got it on a freeway so got it to 110 kph witch is the fastest road limit we have here. was impressed sat nice at 110. so for any of you who know Victoria went from Melbourne to wonton raceway, took a few shots of the car with me phone but not that many, the drift event was good a few crashes one skyline r31 flipped(the guy was fine he had a cage) some one in a silvia s13 got T-boned and taken away in the ambulance didnt here what happend after that hoping he is ok, a few good cars too look at in the pits, a few engine conversions that where nice mostly drift pigs tho

so some sort of an update i bought a new car so the Volvo has not had much attention for a while now. i picked up a NA mx5. which takes all my spare time but i picked up a steering boss for the Volvo so at least that's an update. and maybe some stupid looking orange wheels of a suzuki swift:) that a friend had spare and he just got some bigger tyres so now there spare with tires. after i get the mx5 rego sorted im gonna lower the volvo

so should be fun. has any one ever made lowering blocks? if so any info would be good. thanks guys
