134,000 miles may not seem like a big deal to some of youse guys but I bought the car with 124K on it, so it's my first 10,000. Plus when I bought it dash was lit up like a Christmas tree and now all the lights and warning messages are gone. ;)

sorry for the late response, i didn't see your query until this evening. The summer rims are 17x7.5" +43 ET Propus C rims, which were dealer optional rims for the 2004 C70.

Made by BBS for Volvo, they are 2-piece forged rims. Part number 9475392 MSRP $672.76.

Lower ground strap upgrade. You can also sort of see the new lower torque rod I put in to the left. Used OEM rubber bushings instead of poly because it goes between tranny and subframe and I didn't want to feel vibrations in my feet.

Bosch coils and fuel filter. Only really needed two coils but non-Volvo branded were so cheap changed all six anyways. Mahle oil filter is also OEM. You're just paying for a logo buying at dealer. Leftovers from my IPD tranny flush kit shown too.
