I give you much credit for a very detailed DIY. However that is one horrible , ugly ***, plain looking lip. It belongs back on the POS it came off of.

I got mine from a local junk yard for $12.. There are a lot of Volvo's around this area so they are pretty easy to find.

The fact that there is nothing available for our cars, and the 2 or 3 lips that are available are fiberglass. My friend had one laying around so i picked it up for ***** and giggles and held it up against the bumper. After stepping back and looking at it i realized i could make it work. So later that day i got some screws and we went to work... didn't take very long and it came out pretty good, so i decided to keep it. After i posted a couple of pics my inbox got blown up here and on Ephatch.com so i made a DIY so people would stop PMing me.
