Default V40 Sport Lux front centre spoiler - which clips?

I still have my centre spoiler, however it is not staying in position. All of the metal clip inserts within the bumper have corroded away. Which kind fits? Volvo main dealer do not stock these now.

UPDATE for anyone who it could help...these can still be bought brand new from Volvo, if yours have also rotted away. Have to be ordered from Sweden.

Are you referring to the full valance/lip across the bottom of the bumper or just the trim in the middle? I've just bought an S40 which is missing this part and I've been trying to find it.

Try Volvo as the centre piece was still available a couple of years ago.

As 'Itsv40' says, should still be available via Volvo. I've found that for my V40, 850s and mk1 C70, some obscure trim parts ar, surprisingly, still to be had new from Volvo, who can special order from the classic division. I haven't tried for 300 or 400 series bits, yet...
