Volvo XC70 V8 Engine Swap Episode 7. PIAA Lights and Kolor-Werx Body Wrap

In this episode you’ll see ipd employee Bud Cowgill covering all the upgraded lighting equipment by PIAA. Ipd has been working with PIAA for many years. PIAA has supported ipd on SEMA project cars, specialty builds and R&D projects. PIAA is the industries leader in high quality lighting systems. Bud covers the PIAA RF18 LED Light Bars along with PIAA LED Cube lights. Watch as ipd mounts the lights to the Thule Caprock Platform Rack. Also, in this video you will see the completion of the XC70 V8 custom wrap graphics by Kolor-Werx located in Portland Oregon. Kevin (owner of KW) at Kolor-Werx is the OG when it comes to wrapping cars. Kevin has worked with ipd for many years creating some of the most iconic designs and colors that have become well known throughout the automotive industry. Ipd’s Chris Delano worked with Kevin to design a Topographical Map of Mt. Hood as a design theme for the XC70 V8. We hope you enjoy watching.

Are you guys going to follow up with any more content on this car? Definitely one of the coolest Xc70 builds I've seen.

[@IPDTheVolvoSpecialists]

We are going to have many follow up videos for individual upgrades along with an entire blog on our website. Stay tuned.

I assume this swap can be done on a p3 (post 2014)XC60 no?

ua-cam.com/video/oesDnmaO4TI/v-deo.htmlsi=GZ9jAM7PGC-hI77L Great engine for 60s style Ac Cobra 427 replica ... tried comments in Emelia Hartford and others but no takers to transplant the 60deg light B8444s. The Lancia Stratos would also be amazing. Ford bought Volvo in the period Yamaha was tasked to build 60deg V8 for Volvo and I think 2 Ford engines.
Curious the XC90 software is for torque and S80 is quite revvy. Which is being used in this car?

Will the light rack be noisy when passing 50 mph?

[@IPDTheVolvoSpecialists]

It's not bad at all. We fit a T-channel rubber cover in the exposed front sections, that really helped quiet it down.
