volvo lip help
for everyone that has a volvo lip on there ep3 what year did it come off of and what body style. im bored and have money and want to go to the junk yard and find one right now!
It comes off of an early 90's 740 or something lol. I got mine for like $12 
Not gonna lie, it was kind of a bitch to put on by myself, I recommend having a buddy help out and investing in a heat gun!

Should help, you will need to take the bumper off though pretty sure. So, lift or not... wouldn't matter if the bumper was off haha. I would still throw it up there though just because
im soo bumed out i didnt fnd any today. i looked at 4 diff junkyards and nothing. i think they were calling it the lower valence, they looked at me crazy when i said lower front lip of a 1990 volvo 740 lol
It would probably be easier if you took the bumper off and did it but the lift would help out to. Have you tried going on carparts.com, you can look for the bumper then ask them if it has the lip. But if all falls then you can always do the replica thing where you get a garage door lip and put it on. Looks just like the volvo lip.

Youre going to need to take the bumper off. I used 22 M8 bolts and nuts to hold the lip on. You will have to do trimming on the corners and warm/reform them with a heat gun to get the lip to follow the shape of the bumper. As it sits the corners are a sharp almost 90 deg angle.
You need to put alot of pressure on the lip to get it to contour so I would stay away from self tapping screws etc. Also becuase the lip hangs so low it takes some pretty hard digs. So far mine is still holding strong.

lmfao.. put it this way.. the lip is almost indestructible.. i rode with it about an inch and a half off the ground .. it scraped but looked brand new when i took it off
Well I wish you good searching, I would also like to have the volvo lip on my ep3. I was going to get the CTR conversion kit but its to expensive right now so I was thinking bout this till I got the money.
