I guess I got a decent pic of my little daily.
I recently put H&R springs on it, but the fronts are too high and it looks like my car has a saggy ass. I'm tempted to cut a coil off the front springs, but then it might ride like shit lol.

One coil wouldn't be enough to ruin an h&r spring unless it's progressive
edit: you should try and get some 90/91 rear lights. they dont have the amber portion, just red and white. good visual upgrade

Not sure which side is better to chop, top or bottom. And great, now I'll want those tails haha. Thanks for the suggestion, I thought it was a JDM vs USDM thing lol. Now I'm gonna be looking for a set, even though I told myself I'd do minimal mods to the car lol.

The new XC90 looks so sweet. Love the design. The engine choices seem pretty interesting too. Supercharged and turbocharged!! Only downside is the price starting @ 60k...fully loaded one totals after taxes and everything 96k LOL

^ the new Volvo XC90 definitely has moved up a couple of notches in the prestigious category. I would rank it slightly ahead of the X5 and Q7 and only slightly below the Range Rover Sport.

It's a fantastic vehicle and the pricing makes it even more attractive than its German counterparts. I know one guy who owned an RR prior to owning a new XC90 and he prefers the Volvo much more.
Sadly this one isn't mine; it's a press car loaner. |
