2005 V70 rear spoiler

tc · Nov 6th, 2015, 21:53

Dont suppose anyones got a Rear spoiler for a 2005 V70?.. Preferably with the brackets. Doesn't matter what colour but at a more sensible price than they're charging on Fleabay.

They don't have brackets TC,, Speak to $hed (Ian) as I'm sure he has one going cheap..

They don't?.. Ok, cheers Tony.

Drill 4 mounting holes in the tailgate and a 5th one if you have the high level brake light. It fits using M6 bolts and adhesive pads.

I've got one sat in my garage that I'm never going to get round to fitting. Just had it re painted silver (426 mystic silver) so its look very good.

Only down point is that one of the fixings for the high level brake light has gone brittle to the screw doesn't have anything to hold onto - difficult to explain, sorry. I've simply put some butyl tape underneath which along with the screw the other side holds it on OK. In an ideal world I'd replace it but I'd already spent enough on getting the spoiler and getting it painted.

What's your budget?

Oh, interesting, my cars silver..lol..

TBH I dont really have a budget, though I priced them up on Ebay and they where silly money (over £70 delivered)

Seriously?.. That sounds a bit full on,lol.. I've no objection to drilling holes in it but I'd have thought Volvo would have found a better way of doing it than that,lol.

If you have a look under the tailgate you will see the drill marks "+" Volvo have made..

Most manufacturers use bolts and adhesive to hold spoilers in place. Stops them working loose in car washes etc. Also makes them a pig to remove as I found when I rescued mine before the car went off for salvage
