    S60 R Front bumper...

    Well, should I take the plunge & buy one of these?

    I think it would look sweet, but a touch pricy tho!

    Well, I think not.

    Just a pipe dream, with a paint jobbie it would cost too much for the hassle.

    My problem living in Nottingham is that the speed ramps would rip it off in days.

    Sounds like you need to move house or buy a V70XC Dave!

    I recently got dragged down here by my Wife who is from Torvill and Dean Land. That was then - now you can't sell the house so it looks like I'm stuck here. "Me duck!".

    The reality would be that if you think it's going to look as good as the photo on *-bay without spending another 600 quid in labour making it straight enough to fit the car then you've got another thing coming.

    Volvo charge 3 or 4 times that amount because theirs fits. End of.

    Aftermarket sh*te is just that. I would not touch this with a barge pole but that's only my opinion.

    As I said, pipe dream, I just thought it looked nice :sobs: I'll just buy an R next time!

    My car requires enough plastic painting without buying new crap to stick on it!

    Besides, I'd end up with a chaved up looking motor that scrapes everything higher than a fag packet!
