Morning All

I have a 93 2.5 850 wagon, i would like to ditch the current bumpers and put ether T5 (94>) or 850r style bumpers.

is this possible?

Thanks

yes, you can fit a different lower at the front and a different rear

if you want to colour code the bumpers a quick way is to replace rear with later V70 P1 series, not sure if front fits :)

also this may be of interest....

In that case i think i may well get a fiberglass 850r front off tom cat and try and get a v70 p1 rear, then colour code the door strips as well, lucky i have done a bit of spraying before!

Thanks
