Modified S40, is it possible

Hello all,

I have a 97 S40. Have had it for a number of months now. I can’t fault the car in any way and I’m completely happy with it. But, I want to modify it a little. What I want to do is put a body kit on, something alone the lines of the West Wings Big Mouth kit, install hydraulic suspension, 18” wheels with low profiles. There are a number of additional modifications I wish to make also but these are the main ones.

My initial problem is that the amount of Body Kits available for the S40 is extremely limited. The ones I have seen are practically the same as the factory fitted kits. Has anyone come across a site that sells a wide range of kits for the S40?

Another issue I came across was nearly giving my local Volvo dealer a heart attack when I mentioned putting 17”’s onto the S40. So I obviously didn’t mentioned the lowering of the suspension, never mind hydraulics or 18”! Is this even possible?

Thanks for the time
Regards,
Steve
