Hi everyone.

I've got a V50 Sport, 55 reg 2005. With the 2L diesel. I've been trying to find a rear diffuser to have the twin exit like the T5 but I can't find anything about it for this year car.

If anyone has a part number or know how to get this done please enlighten me.

Thanks

you can either cut the holes yourself into the bumper if you have an r design model, or you will need to purchase a 2008+ Rdesign rear bumper from a model that does have a dual exit.

You can then get an exhaust system to fit that look.

Worth noting that D3, D4, D5 and T5 models all have the twin exhaust setup so will have the appropriate bumper.

Are all model years the same for rear bumper V50?

Sorry lizard what do you mean? you should be able to swap in a newer bumper from a nwer model yes. Im actually waiting on a V50 Rdesign front bumper to swap onto my S40.

I know the prefacelift didnt have exhaust exits in them

Huh? A bit lost now.
My T5 has cutouts in the bumper for dual exhaust but on the underlip part (the extra part from Sport trim). I thought thats what OP was asking about, ref 2005 model but you recommended 2008 R-design bumper, hence my question: can you fit 2008 FL rear bumper into pre-FL car without any issues?
FL cars had rear exhaust pointed more straight out, where my has rear tips pointed downwards so doesnt need as much cutout as you would need for FL model.
Not sure if I explained myself properly :)
