Default V70 R front lower lip - any aftermarket?

Hi all,

I want to put the lip from an R onto my Olive Green T5 but cannot find one anywhere, even on the aftermarket.

Does anyone know if these are available separately?

Thanks

You aren't looking very hard then! Dunc (DunkinBiscuits on this forum) runs a company called Volvo Composites, he can sort you out.

OK so he DOESNT do an R type lower chin spoiler. He suggested I contact Volvo for a new bumper, which I did. For around £300, I can have a new bumper pre-painted in Olive Green from the manufacturer.

I've just asked if this comes with the grilles etc, so am awaiting. Also trying to blag a 10% discount, in which case it's a no-brainer.

Interesting, seem to recall that was what he started doing? Lips, then bumper grafts, then BTCC style airdams.

Seems as though if you have an R you'll be able to purchase a secondary lower lip, but not for the regular bumper.

Quite looking forward to buying a brand new bumper from Volvo actually. My existing bumper has a couple of scuffs anyhow, and any good bodyshop would be at around £300 to paint a bumper, so I'd rather just sling it and replace with a brand spanking new one!
