    There's usually some on ebay.
    Black with chrome trim, and black with black trim.
    I haven't got one yet - I've got other money-pits to fill first!

    Fun in the twisties!

    Not bad, I tried both on mine, either the all black or the black with the chrome, coudlnt decide between them! Everytime I put the black and chrome one on people were going on about how it made it look like an Audi!

    To be honest theres nothing to them either, £70 is a rip off.

    Could you not buy some mesh and cut out your exsisting grille and use the outter edge?It might look a bit naff,But it won't cost you much and use some industrial glue or hard as nails then spray it over.

    Hi...I got mine on ebay from the nordic car company, £41 + £6.50 postage.
    but then you have to consider relocating the horns...a bit fiddly but looks clean http://www.volvospeed.com/Mods/hornrel.php
