Just finished fitting the S60R bumper to the D5 and I'm pleased to say it went on without any issues whatsoever.

To ensure a direct fit you MUST have the corner hangers and plastic support bar.....otherwise it will not fit.

Here's the results.....shame I had to put the number plate on lol

The bumper is screaming out for a FMIC but I keep promising myself a set of IPD arbs....it's just the ££ or the lack of it lol

Yeah that looks spot on. So what does sit were the intercooler goes on the R. Have you put mesh or something in its place

Nothing sits in there currently apart from the ac condensor. I was thinking about fitting a decent quality grille IF it looked too open but it actually looks perfect as it is. Obviously a nice big shiny FMIC would look even better though.

Looks good mate, you just need the 2.5 HPT petrol engine, AWD sytem, Brembos, 4C suspension, and blue dials to go with it. ;)

fwiw- i have mine fitted with neither r hangers or support bar lol ;)
and yes fmic ftw! mesh will look tacky, if you do decide on going grill try some plastic honeycomb or the like...

No nothing like one, a V40 diesel does, I've had 2 people in my car now that have said it's got a nice note to it.

Actually come to think of it some tractors nowadays sound better than our R's so I will take that as a compliment.

That's going to look amazing!, I would love that but it doesn't suite the colour of my car. I will swap for my dad's R and do these mods :)
