Hey, I'm new to the site and it was recommended from a fellow Volvo driver I recently met. I think he told me where to find the V70R Valance, but I don't remember where to get it. I have a 99 S70 AWD. If anyone could let me know where to get it (painted/non-painted-doesn't matter), that would be nice. Thanks.

I just put a new R front bumper on my 99 S70.It looks sweet.There are alot of ways to go here,but the easiest,quickest and most durable is to order one directly from your local Volvo dealer.I got mine prepainted the same color as my car from the dealer for $406 plus tax,and installed it myself.You might be able to do slightly cheaper buying a used one,paying for shipping and painting,and hoping the paint holds up,but my money is on the OEM part.

You might also want to try calling junkyards to see if they have some wrecked R's that they'd sell the bumper from.
Some of the bigger junk yards are listed under the general parts category in this thread. Try emailing them to see if they have the bumper before you check the dealer.

Where/how do I find DC Bumpers. Tried searching google-not succesful. Also if I buy from the dealer do I have to buy fogs seperately?

Look Here
I have a bunch of pictures of my V70R bumper in this post and on my webshots page. I have more on my computer if you need a better shot.
About DC BUMPER:
I attempted to order a V70R bumper through DC bumper and they told me that they had one in primer ready to go. When the bumper arrived it was a C70 front bumper not the V70R bumper I ordered. I told them about the mistake and they asked me to send them a picture of the bumper I wanted. I sent a very clear and large Picture of a V70R bumper and they said they would locate one for me. A week passed and they were unable to locate a used repairable V70R bumper. To make up for their screw up, not being able to find a V70R bumper, and two weeks of my time DC bumper went ahead and purchased me a new painted V70R bumper from a local Volvo dealership and shipped it to me at no extra charge.
Moral of the story. Check a head of time to make sure they have A v70 R bumper available, because I do not think anyone else will have the luck I did.
Hope this helps.
Dave
