Default Adding a SPOILER to an S70 or 850

I've been seeing a lot of S70's and 850's that don't have the SPOILER on them and I've kinda been putting them at the back of the "I'll check it out" list.

What can you guys tell me about adding a standard or similar SPOILER to either the S70 or 850? Price? Availability? I don't know crap enough to feel I'm capable of doing the install by myself.

(I meant spoiler but I said fender....... k... lol)

If you are talking about replacing a fender then the front fenders are a bolt on install. You would need to make sure the part lines up properly

Try and find a spoiler from a 96 or 97 850 R. They are the coolest looking in my opinion. I bet you could get one from Erie Volvo at a reasonable price. I think they are just held on by adhesive so I should not be too tough. I have no idea of the price.

OOOOHHHHH! A spoiler. Now I see. I bought one off ebay for my sons 96 850. Luckily for me it was already black and in perfect condition. It's going under the Christmas tree. I got lucky and only paid about $45 for mine and it has the brake light. Every once in a while you'll see one on ebay. Some are OEM and some aftermarket.

Or a junk yard, aftermarket mod parts vendors...

...or rip one off of a jet airplane[8D]. It'll give you a lot more down-force than you'll ever need. Installation should be simple, but you may need a drill.
