Noobie Post - V70 front fog light trim
 
Hi all, quick question but will the decor trim for the front fog lights as on Ocean Race model be able to be straight swapped onto the standard V70 fog lights (61 plate 2011/12 model).

I guess the R-design ones can be retro fitted but they have a (?) satin type finish so might look out of place with my standard chrome. I'm not looking to make mine into an R-design just like the look of a bit more chrome around the fog lights.

Thanks in advance
Matt.

Hi
Yes it will fit up to the 2013 facelifted models.
I actually have a set from my previous V70 if you are interested.
Just getting round to listing a few accessories & upgrade parts removed when I sold it.
Cheers

I fitted the ocean race ones as they matched better

They look good

The Volvo Ocean Race have a slither of chrome at the top which I think adds a little bit to the front of the car than with the plain black plastic.
The R-Design are all matt/satin silver which doesn't match with the chrome on the standard front grill.

And just to correct my last reply I meant up to 2013 pre-facelift bumper models.

Also, I've listed these in the For Sales section along with a few other goodies.
