no offense to Vida, but 90$usd is a little steep.

Im looking specifically for an 2002 V70. Im not exactly sure if its identical to the R's.

presumably this https://www.vivaperformance.com/headlig ... -and-v70r/

agree with OP this will not likely fit an 02 V70 anyway, but the link outlines the concept

But you remove the wiper motors (they dont work) and you're left with a huge hole there.

Paint-matched or black? Not that I can 3D model and print, I'm just curious.
Help keep MVS on the web -> click sponsors' links here on MVS when you buy from them.

Also -> Amazon link
. Click that when you go to buy something on Amazon and MVS gets a cut!

Id take black/raw. The car is silver, and from experience its hard to find a silver that doesnt match pretty well with anything in a can.

I think you should fix your headlight wipers instead. They are generally pretty easy to fix and maintain and as someone who does a lot of winter driving in mountainous conditions, they are invaluable. It’s a shame that Volvo dropped them on the 06, 07 P2’s and subsequent models.
