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! |
