And here is one of the steering wheel that came off.
I have replaced it with the stock set up. And i like it much more then that set up!
Now this is all due to the steering wheel coming off
So now that its scratched up like that i need to get it buffed out
I have a friend that does VERY good body work and he has had about 2 or 3 240s in his time so far, so I think i can trust him to know what he is doing haha. I picked out all the body parts. Some are OEM some are aftermarket. I want to keep the car a sleeper but i also want to have some extra looks to her. See with the Volvo S60R you don't have really any room to play. there is one aftermarket bumper and there is 3 store's to buy parts from. Plus ever thing cost a arm and a leg!!! So i decided to go with a Carbn Fiber hood. I could not find stock fenders to save my life that were a good price. everyone wanted an arm and a leg for one fender so i decided to go with a aftermarket fiberglass fender set. It was a cheaper and they look sweet! I just hope they look right without the rest of the kit. I saw one car with them and not the rest of the kit and it looked good. but that was on a s13. so i hope this works out. if not ill just sell em!
I'm going to have her painted Satin Black! I think that will go really good! I have not decided if i want to paint the hood or not. I'm 95% NOT going to paint it but there's that 5% that is saying go sleeper with the hood!
I am also having my new 300ZX Z23 brake calipers painted red with black letters. and i am having him paint my wheels black also
they are 26mm calipers and the other 2 are in the box haha.
The guy i got the car from gave me today, a set of solid motor mounts. What are your guys thoughts on them..? i had 2 of the 5 motor/trans mounts in the volvo solid and all it did was create a bit of vibration. will the same happen when i install these.
they look really nice and i would love to have them in there but not if its going to create problems.
I also had to buy head lamps for my car, so i got my self a nice set of some German spec lamps. i am really digging the super clear glass i will be fitting a H.I.D kit as soon as i get her out of the body shop.
Man it is cold out there so i only took one out to take a photo of. I have both haha.
Ever thing and the car is going to my buddy tomorrow (Sunday) he is doing all the body work and paint work im super stoked!!!
And i just forgot!! My starter just took a crap! Oh well time for a new one!!
as the car sits rigth now i have 300HP at the wheels. which is a huge step up from my Volvo S60R. So right now my main concern is the body. But as soon as shes out of the body shop im getting a set 550cc injector, and the rest of the brake set up.
And once all the body work is done and taken care of i will be getting a tuner and getting her re-dyno tuned. and start playing!!
