        To those who can't read, have to click on his "www" button, which will take you to his site, where the pictures of the car are.

        Also, it is a Volvo front spoiler, that goes under the front bumper.

        Honestly, the lighting of the picture prevents me to judge it right. I would say that now it looks like a snow plow, but I would need a better angle/light picture.

                  yes it would be a snowplow in the winter( there is only 3" of cleaance to the ground ,and yes it does scrape ) but it wont be on then . I did this as an experiment .I think it worked rather well . At Hwy speed the car pulls down slightly and the car feels it is glued to the road . I have also noticed that the car runs cooler by one bar on the stock temp guage .The other thing is my gas consumption has decreased .

                    I can't tell you I like it . Your car has a nice rounded sleek shape to it and that spoiler does not help the sleekness of your car.

                    I think that you would be a lot better off with a custom lip on your car .. something that wraps around the side contours of the car and doesn't hang so low.

                    It just dosen't look like it belongs there.

                        not my thing.

                        but im partial to my new hamman style front splitters.

                        just got them on last night. (can we say last minute nopi? i still have to wash and wax and do the engine today....)

                        can't wait to get some pics up.

                          you have to see it in person. the pictures do not the the front justice. I like it!!, and WOW does it make a difference in the handling of the car (believe me i know)

                          it is different, and it was an experiment. i mean come one guys give macklum a little respect here he did soemthing no one else has. and it WORKS! it looks good, it is non ricer, and is clean...

                          When you turn your car on... does it return the favor?

                          With much too much boost,

                              totally different than the usual stuff
                              the spoiler is definetly a big plus

                              btw, what is the big light(reverse) at the back for
                              is it really needed where you live at
                              or is just for looks
                              just curious because it takes from the image of the car
                              but i bet it is for use
