so, i've been doing a lot of changes at my car lately, but i dislike the way you post photos around here and i'm kind of lazy to go every time to tinypic, upload, wait a few seconds and then post the picture. so a summary for all the things i've done, this winter break the car was [and still is, undergoing some modifications and still not finished yet] and i've "tore" piece by piece like everything around the engine bay. i cleaned all the intake pipes, including the intercooler, I installed a new turbo because the other one was finished, it sounded like a space shuttle [wwiiiuuhhhhhh in high rpms], i cleaned the whole engine and what's around it, including draining the whole oil, "washing" interior inch by inch, then i took the oil tank and cleaned it and every little oil filter i had around the oil tank. so that means that my car has a clean engine and a clean engine bay, i guess that's the correct word for Simply Clean everything. 

so the next modifications was tearing apart everything from the interior, waterfall console and other stuff and i changed the LED's from the console and around the other pieces. what remained to change are the buttons from the wheel and the unlock\lock buttons. until the LED's were ready i gave the car a good clean from the interior aswell, that meant, seats out, wash the whole carpet, wash the seats, everything from the interior including the windows. so by now i've done pretty much and i apologize for not posting here but as i said above, i hate the way you have to post around here. i'm going to post some pictures and enjoy, let me know your opinion. [i have some faulty LED's that i'm going to change tomorrow] and i forgot to mention that i made the volvo letters silver 










installed the oem triangle holder
