Fitment question

Will the bumpers from a 1998 V70R fit on a 1994 850 wagon? I'm trying to figure this out for both front and rear bumpers.

well, the V70 didnt have the body colored pieces under the headlights like the 850 has, for starters. I just dont know and dont want to wind up with something I cant use.

similar? maybe, i dont know. When it comes to body parts though, "close" doesnt cut it. I dont want gaps or bad fitment, which is why i was asking if it fit or not...I don't think anyone really knows.

No, it won't. You need the whole X70 front clip.

The short answer is YES. The long answer is your going to have to swap the entire front end.

Bumper, Front Quarter Panels, Headlights, Turn Signals.

right, but the bumper by itself will not fit, which is what he was wondering. You will also need the radiator support. Like I said, the entire front clip.

Thusly why I said what I said. Otherwise he would have thought just the bumper was needed...
