Default R series Bumper

Just wondered as i have been offered some 850 T5R bits, would the following fit on my C70 without any modifications and adaptions? They are as Follows:
1. 850 T5R Front Bumper
2. T5R Alloys
3. 850 T5R Wing Mirrors

I would appreciate your comments and advice, Thanks

The alloys will for certain.

The bumper, I think, will fit, but you'll need the foglights from it as the C70 ones are completely different. Actually, on second thoughts, possibly not at all, the headlights, grill etc are all different on the P1 car.

Wing mirrors, no idea.

1. fairly popular mod, as mentioned you will need the different fogs and bumper foam.
2. wheels should be fine provided bolt pattern is the 5x108
3. mirror body looks the same, but the mount is definitely different between the two.

It's not my cup of tea, but ordered new from Volvo it is about $300-350 shipped. Argument will always be it is too angular when compared to the rest of the curves of the C. It's more confusing when you see a C bumper on a wagon or sedan. Need to take a second look so you know what your actually looking at.

I still think you have it mistaken, he is asking about an 850 bumper not a P1 R bumper.

That wont fit and would look awful if it did imho

Just reread it. Yeah, I thought he was asking about the V70R bumper.
