Will this fit to my Volvo?
I have a Volvo V50 2.0d (2005) - pre facelift.
I know this is the v50 front bumper for a 2007 - 2010 model but are the fixings the same? Will it just bolt on? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/volvo-v50-...e#ht_511wt_922 Thanks to all who reply. |

far as Im aware nothing has changed and should fit, they've only changed the design slightly and not the mounting points

Before considering this job you need to read this thread from another member who's done it. It's not impossible (quite a few members have done it) but it's also not as straight forward as you think.
http://www.volvoforums.org.uk/showth...t=v50+facelift SonyVaio can also help as he's done it to his V50 (just do a search for him or he may also reply as he's a very helpful chap!). |

The 07-11 Bumper will technically fit, but your headlights won't, or your grill, lower grill or fogs. If you can piece together all the bits you need it is just a bolt-on job. There's a plastic piece behind the grill that needs cutting away a bit, but no other modifications to the bodywork, arches, or undertrays.
It's a slippery slope, once you get the bumper, you'll end up on ebay buying the other parts, rear bumper, rear lights etc etc. It's the best thing I did though, I love how my v50 looks now, after a polish it still looks pretty new, and mine's a 2004 with 120,000 miles! What I did was sell my old parts, bumpers, headlights, grilles etc on ebay to help offset the cost, and the whole conversion probably cost less than £500 (Most of that was because I couldn't resist going for R-Design kit too!!) |
