    new bumper

    I,m considering buying a 2000 model year c70 t5 thats had a slight frontal incident, needs a bonnet,two headlamps and the slam panel the radiators attach to, the bumber is scratched but ok.
    Question is , I've been offered a bumber from a classic V70R in the same colour (saffron) but will it fit onto a C70?

    I might have mislead... it definitely isn't the SAME as the C70 bumper (but you probably know that) - it MIGHT FIT... but I bet it would look a bit weird, given the C70's lines.

    Anyone know if it will FIT (even if it doesn't look the same)?

    All the fixings are in the same place,they share the same front end(chassis) and the front panel and lamps are the same.The wings are also the same at the front end and only vary from the V70 in that the C70 ones run along the sill by a few inches.The V70 bumper should fit,i have seen one fitted to a C70 but it did look a bit odd.
