Default V70 Mk3 Front Grille

A pheasant flew into our V70 the other day and cracked the front centre grille on the bumper. Does anyone have one they would sell or know where to look for an affordable second hand replacement? Thanks in advance!

Just what is with pheasants and our Volvo grilles? I, like you, hit one and it took out the grille to point that it was decimated. Cheap plastic or designed to break on impact?

I have been looking for months for a suitable replacement but they are rarer than hens teeth on the second hand market outlets. Some on eBay at the mo but way too expensive for me.
Good luck with your hunt

I finally found one on eBay for £76 so a good bit cheaper than a new one. It is the early P3 grille so has the older badge but at least I have a grille until I find a 2011 one at a reasonable price. If I find one I will be listing the older one for sale!
