Those side scuttles might have to be a future mod for mine. Same goes for the CF beltline. Overall, really great looking Clubbie. Definitely want to lower mine with some NM RS Alpha Springs in the future. Just have to save up since I'll be swapping out the control arms, too. Right now looks to be about $1000 job if done by my local shop. Also have new stripes in the plans. Mod-fever is so contagious and unrelenting. ;-)

Looking mean. Big fan of a BRG in blackout mode. Those Hella's should be a nice touch.

the ride was great with the ez street coil overs even better now with the euro series for a normal driver i might say the suspension is to tight, you barely touch the steering wheel and the car will jump into the next lane. Perfect for the track cant wait for speed ventures to come up

cost i have no clue but its up there. I guess i can add it all up when i have the time

The photo below is shown one link away from the furthest back it will go, though you could probably drill more holes if you needed to as long as it didn't affect balance. I bought it used, but even at full price it's not bad considering how much THULE & YAKIMA boxes of comparable size cost.

Volvo "Weekender" Roof Box

Sweet! Looks great. Guess i'll have to find one used as $400+ is a bit hefty. Thanks for the pic!

I got my Thule carrier used on Craigslist for less than $200. Just keep your eyes open.

Definitely not as aggressive a drop, but still better than stock. I'm curious as to which luggage rack rails you have on yours? I'd like to buy a set to install when needed. If you have a part number or link it would be much appreciated. Thanks!

Thank you, I can get the part number tomorrow but I just bought the factory rack for the oem rails that came on the car from the dealer, I kinda wish it didn't come with the factory rails cause I really want the rear roof spoiler
