Before I start fabricating, is there anyone who makes push bumpers for volvo 850's?, you know the sort of bull bars on the front of american police cars like Ford Crown interceptors,

I always thought they were particularly effective against children. But sadly I cannot answer the question. Would a front end from an XC70 work?

Nah, I guess they'd be all extra plastic and foam

In london , it would be a deterent for other t***ers in big cars jumping into my gap on box junctions, and to play football in car parks with shopping trolleys.....

Are they not illegal now?I think aftermarket bull bars are now illegal but if your motor had then when you bought it then you're safe.

Bull bars are good for removing inanimate obstacles in the road that are causing traffic to swerve onto the wrong side of the road...very good :thewave:

I dont drive a Volvo though!

Don't care Volvo's have a severe chassis , will make it and refabricate in nylon/foam if I have too, want some fun!
