S40 2009 Front grill needed

[BarryZola]

Hello there. Need some help if possible. (S40 R-Design 2009)

I was driving down a country lane this morning and a pheasant has jumped out in front of the car and smashed half of my front main grill (the higher one with the Volvo logo and R-Design badge). I was lucky and the damage seems to be only isolated to the grill (grille?). Unfortunately the pheasant was not so lucky but it appears it was probably a quick death which is the only saving grace. I feel pretty bad about it though.

Obviously I would like a like for like replacement if possible (2nd hand is fine). I deally under £100 if possible (if not I'll just have to spend more).

Any ideas where I may be able to get one? A small silver lining is that I've been meaning to replace the worn out R-design badge but that meant maybe taking the grill off, so I'll do that now anyway

Edit - Just realized this is in the wrong forum. Please move if possible. My apologies.

Can't help with obtaining a grill, but see this thread for swapping it out. Don't need to remove the whole bumper:

Have a look on this site, there are Volvo scrappers listed, somewhere.
You may struggle as these are not easy to get hold of 2nd hand.

Cheers for the replies guys. Couldn't find one listed on Ebay yesterday but found someone splitting a whole car (same model but in red) for spares so messaged him on the off chance that he still had the grill. He did still have it and after a few messages etc it's on its way to me for £80 posted. Identical part. Will have a look at the guide above, many thanks

By the way, went to the dealer today and after them checking on the computer I now know it costs £215 for the part from Volvo official dealerships. Saved a bit of money anyway and now get to fit a new R-Design badge

The "latest" grille (bigger Volvo badge and no square surround) was ~£175 from Swansea FRF Volvo, another £9 postage I think.

That's a result, so quick and easy.
The Rdesign badge isn't cheap either. Original go for £30-40. There are cheaper copies but look a bit grim. There was a member on here making and selling half decent stickers .

Yeah, i tried messaging the guy who was selling the stickers but I think he ran out a long time ago. If anyone has a spare lying around please feel free to message me and I'll buy one

The replacement grille arrived around an hour ago and I've just fitted it. Didn't bother taking the bumper off, just used a knife (with tape on) to lever the grille out and it wasn't too much hassle. I think it helped slightly that it's strength had already been compromised by the bird strike! The replacement slots back in so so easily. The replacement had an R-design badge that was only half faded so that will do for now unless I ever come across a decent sticker as I can't be bothered to take the grille off again unless absolutely necessary (wouldn't want to damage it unnecessarily).

Thanks for your tips everyone
