Ah ok - yeah those only fit:

9-5 99-01
9-5 02-05 Not for Aero 04+

So those won't fit my car or MattD's. This is the light we have with the 2004 Aero front end:

Somebody please make this happen!!!

[J-Rod]

^This guy can. I'm pretty sure he's running refurbed Hirsch coils. And Jssaab has that body kit on his white-out Aero if I remember right.

My slammed winter beater... 91 900S with chopped springs. Decided to have fun with it while I can! It's rough and I figured this year would be it's last year, but it's worked out a lot of it's own bugs and still drives great, despite the disconnect power steering due to a leaky rack (all winter long, still fine, great upper body workout). Also replaced the passenger side inner driver with a used drivers side cup (like new going in opposite direction) and a new axle. Also put the Carlsson exhaust on it due to the old one rotting off and falling off due to hitting a slush ball.

I wish my 'beater' was that nice haha

Trust me, she's rough... black hood with dings, scratches, and bent corners, a fiberglassed jack point under the passenger front door, rot all over the place underneath, etc... it's far from a beauty. Don't like the pictures deceive you. It does however run very strong and is extremely reliable. Drives in a straight line and no clunks or anything like that. It's a good little beater. And the transmission is the best I've ever had in all of my c900s that I've owned. Very tight and quiet. I paid 700 dollars for it in the fall of 2010. Put about 300 into it. More than I had wanted to pay for it, but oh well... I fell in love with how well it drove despite all of the rust. I am usually a good judge of c900's when I buy them. I can usually tell which ones are going to be nightmares and which ones are going to take care of themselves.

There's also a good sized dent in the drivers rear c-pillar (right on the body line) from my fist... ended up breaking my hand last winter due to a fit of rage that I have never experienced before in my life (not caused by the car). Glad it was the car and not a person, as I'm sure several bones would have been pulverized in their face and I would have been behind bars. I ended up denting one of the hardest folds of a c900. My pinky knuckle actually hit the fold/crease and pushed it in and spider cracked the paint lol. I actually snapped the knuckle off on my pinky and it took a long time to try and reset the bone, but they did a terrible job and my hand is all fucked up to this day. So needless to say, the body is less than stellar even if it was rust free.

Im glad Im not the only one who has done that.. I immediately regretted it but I punches the C-Pillar of my aero last summer..

[Turbo00]

We've probably all been there, I threw my keys at my 85 once after like the third bolt snapped doing some suspension work. Thankfully the alarm clicker hit first and just scuffed the paint, which I was able to buff out, rather than the keys themselves.

[zingZACH]

lol, well mine was not caused by anger from my car... it was after finding out my ex of 2 years had cheated on my multiple times with more than one person and after she had decided to play numerous games with my head. I blacked out and punched the car once, broke my hand, and punched it again with the broken hand. Then had to drive 2 hours on windy backroads to the hospital while trying to hold a bag of peas on my hand and shift at the same time. I'll tell you, c900 c-pillars are all there lol. My problem is that I bottle everything up until I snap... I have a very long fuse, but once it's about to blow, watch out.

The worst part about it is my knuckle doesn't line up properly at all, and is about a half an inch further back than it used to be. I can't pop my knuckle at all anymore or bend it all that much without experiencing a ton of pain. It has also become arthritic. Definitely not worth punching hard stuff when you're mad if you can help it. I have a good sized lump where my knuckle sits now.

stupid stupid bitches. i cant believe that dent. i dont even think that pillar buckled in the top gear video when they dropped it 20ft lol.

Yeah, like I said, I'm glad it was the car and not one of the guy's faces. It would have been very bad. That's why I believe, it's not always the bigger person who will win a fight, it's generally the person who's more pissed off. That was the angriest I have ever been in my life, by a long shot. I didn't feel a thing when I punched it until about 5 minutes after due to the adrenaline. I looked down and my pinky was just kind of flopping around, not connected to anything and knew immediately that I fucked up lol.

Hey guy's what's up. I just wanted to say yes lowered Saab's do drive in the snow..although I get some wierd "looks" Good job to all those of us trying to make them as low as we can...sweet!!! Man it got cold that day a good 1/2" of ice entombed the Aero...brrrr....cold!!!

[zingZACH]

My c900 is wonderful in the snow, despite it plowing everything on the road. I actually scrape on paved main roads.

[SOAB]

I am in love with this picture.. what are you lowered on?

And yes the Aero bumper is a damn good plow :P

[zingZACH]

^ Agree... that is a pretty fantastic picture and stance. I'm guessing Intrax.
