I took the grill off (super easy). Masked off the emblem and sprayed the rest with plasti-dip. But like I said it doesn't look that great up close so I'm going to peel it off and redo it with paint.ColoradoVolvo wrote:Gonna be quick as hell!! so on the grill, did you just mask off the volvo emblem and go to town on the paint??

Got the turbo changed today along with my motorcycle tires. Now all I need is a tune and I am in business!...
Pic dump...
Old and new manifolds...
So far it is running smooth. I reset the ECU and flushed the coolant also.
