1998 S70 T5 Lip for front bumper?

Post by volvo_bruh »

Does anyone know if it's possible to get a lip for a T5 front bumper? And if it is, where would you buy it?

PO of mine did this on the 99 T5 bumper:

I thought it looked good:

Unfortunately, it was attached with 999999999 screws, and the car is lowered by about an inch. I smacked it on a curb in a perpendicular-parking spot, and it tore a few chunks out of the bumper and now hangs low.

Ben850 has a "lip" on a couple of his cars I think. You can check out his pictures and see if you like the look or not.
