Does anyone know what this spoiler is off originally, as I don't think they made one for the C70, but it's exactly what I'm after, and the owner (well son in law of the owner) doesn't know.

One candidate??[/QUOTE]
Looks nice, with brake light too.

Personally I don't think a spoiler looks very good on the C70.

Looks pretty similar to the one on my S40, style wise https://www.dropbox.com/s/n4d60z8f3ng9oyn/IMG_20130720_095852.jpg

I've been thinking of one for our C70, and I like that one.

I did wonder if a S40 one would fit, but haven't had the opportunity to look at one up close.

c70's are about the lines and curves not bolt on spoilers and bodykits, thats why they never made them with one

I think it looks alright. Stribo have you seen the lip spoilers on eBay? I think they look well on the c70.

First thought when I looked at that pic was "s40" might be worth looking at one of them
Post 627136 by Wobbly Dave on 2013-07-20 19:55:19
I have a lip spoiler you can have - I never fitted it - it's still unpainted in the shed. C70 doesnt need it. Neither does it look better with the V70R bumper on the front (sorry Brett) - IMHO.

I beg to differ on that point!
Post 627150 by Wobbly Dave on 2013-07-20 20:19:53
Personal pref - I seen a few done - but it still isn't making it better Chris for me - no offence, but I prefer the original. the R bumper is too square.
If you like it then that's fine.
Post 627164 by Plodmonkey on 2013-07-20 20:45:56
It is from the s40 100% done in America a lot I think

Have to agree with Dave on this one Chris, the squareness (is that a word?) of the R bumper doesn't suit the rounded lines of the C70. IMO.
I'd be interested in the lip spoiler Dave, think it looks good on this one:

Is that not the spoiler from an S60 Sport? Looks like the one Sophie had on hers.
Post 627202 by foammanmark on 2013-07-20 21:31:28
Definitely looks good on that...............

No mate, the S60 D5 one has narrower 'legs'.

Yes that's the one. I changed my mind after buying it. 3M attach but will need painting in.

Can they not be sanded down to suit?
Post 627841 by partsforvolvos.com on 2013-07-22 12:10:30
i've got some unpainted lip spoilers you could trim down to the length of the c70 boot lid if you tell me how long it needs to be. they are fairly soft abs plastic.

The first fast Volvo I ever saw was a C70 saffy. It was screaming down the M3. it had twin exhausts and a split rear wing that raised about a foot off the boot lid.
(imagine an "S" shape, on it's side - for each side of the boot)
Looked mad lol.
Post 627850 by partsforvolvos.com on 2013-07-22 12:35:12
that would have been one of those distusting efforts that gold s70 had. somebody help me- was it kingdom or something who were guilty??
good old google :

Post 627853 by partsforvolvos.com on 2013-07-22 12:39:01
i'm pretty sure that must be a s40 ph1 spoiler on the c70 , but ground down to fit the curve of the c70 bootlid. the width would be about the same.

Not quite that ghastly mate, same sort of thing but more flowing and lower, without the vertical wing tips.
