On the T4 there is wood inserts in all 4 doors...Idea was to take the wood out replace them with something or cover / spray.. Chrome/carbon etc...

Managed to get door card off (after ages) Somebody on performance volvo group uk had to explain exactly how to get them off because it was a bugger..

The wood inserts can't be removed from the door cards, glued onto the leather and riveted on

Don't know what to do now? any ideas ppl.

like this on all 4 doors..

I've seen these inserts in person in other Ovlov's before - I didnt think it actually looked that tacky tbh? Id leave them if they are gonna be that hard! Unless Volvo do optional extras (ie different options?) maybe they could do something?

You'll struggle to find many in a scrappy Id have thought?! Mind u, when a Volvo crashes, I suppose it does just sort of crush and explode air bags everywhere?! I'll keep my eyes peeled for anythin that may be any good

Think that was the original idea!

I've got some Max Power stickers if you want Mav?
