Xc70s Body Swap?


trgft

Recommended Posts

Just a thought about putting the xc70s black front bumper and fenders on S60s to make a easier "wide body". Do they fit directly? maybe it just a stupid question? what do you guys think?

Please look at the body shapes of the 2 cars, you will have your answer and then realize it is a stupid question. :P

EDIT: I just realized, what year XC70 are you asking about? It might not be a stupid question depending on the year.

I think they kinda look same from the front, same headlamps and hood, only different bumper and fenders.

No they are not. Headlamps are different, hood is different, and mounting won't fit. The answer is no unless you feel like shelling out a monkey load of cash for some custom work. Besides, it'd looks like stuff.

X70's = box

X60's = not a box

And this isn't monkeyin' performance. This is cosmetic.

Try being more educated (or at least sounding more educated) before responding. The 2001+ XC70 shares the same body style charactaristics as the S60.

I think your idea has a lot of potential. since the cars are the same platform, and they certainly do look the same, it may well work. Maybe a member can look up stuff on V@d!s and see id the part numbers for the fenders are the same for a S60 and a XC70. If thats the case, that the numbers are the same, them maybe the wheel arches will also fit...and then all you have to do is make the rear bumper work..

...of course, this is all in theory
