Yes a V70 rear bumper will fit an 850, provided you get the plastic brackets for the sides. However, I don't think that's a V70 rear bumper, looks like an 850 saloon rear bumper to me.

Very nice, reason I asked was that mines met grey and yours looks excellent colour coded.

whats the diferance between the 850 rear bumper and the v70?

[Loz1]

Does that mean the v70 front bumper will fit as well?????

V70 bumper doesnt have the grey part and is slightly different shape at the top.. smoother if you like.

Plus it has the lower lip if you look at the pic.. makes the bumper line up perfect with the standard side skirts.

Think the moulding is different at the bottom and the v70 bumpers were all colour coded unlike the 850's where the top section has the grey textured plastic finish.

Speaking of the side skirts shaun has anybody notice that the 70 series skirts are slightly different to the 850 too ?

Hello unsure weather it would fit it most probwill do but if you notice on the v70 front bumper in the middle it dips for the grille so i would think the grill is a bit bigger that on a 850 and it would look weird fitted to a 850

I have seen a 850 with a S70R complete front end but in my honest opinion the 850 has classic lines that shouldnt be messed with and slightly more agressive look..

[nobananas]

...think that's the only way you would get a 70 series bumper on a 850, by replacing the whole front end.
