Default Changes to the rear end

After a minor mishap decided to change the rear bumpers and got the skid plates fitted by the dealer. The car was once again detailed by Jim from Whitedetails and the badges removed , treated the car to the P* upgrade , runs like a dream. Except for the excessive tyre noise and other outstanding items but that is an other story.

That's a lot to spend on a detail, but the car looks great! Awesome number plate too

Fantastic.
I had already decided I was going to de-badge my XC90 T8 when it arrives, and your lovely car has made me even more keen to do so.

Guess that's why he never replied when I asked him how much he wanted for it.
