Body/Trim: - DIY Facelift

mrboost · Feb 28th, 2013, 08:48

Hi

Has anybody (I'm sure they have) facelifted a V70 Phase 2 to Phase 3 ?. I'm currently on the hunt for another volvo T5 or D5 but really like the look of the Phase 3. My budget is rather low having 5 cars and the mrs saying you can get another volvo but you must sell one. So I'm going to be going for a phase 2 and phase 3 the front. Lights, bumper and grille ?

I've not had a really good look, but they look like the just swap over, with ebay prices at rock bottom just thought everyone would be doing it? or is it not that simple.

Soon to be volvo up again

P2 to P2.5 was just a facelift - P3 is AFAIK completely new build, so would be like trying to fit P2 front end on a P1
