Well winter has brought me a ditch. Not as bad as it could have been but need a new bumper cover and undercarriage plastic protector. Its a white bumper. Didn't know the best place to look for a replacement?

thanks!

Scrapyard. If you get the part from Volvo, they come pre-painted, but the cost is astounding -- north of $500. They are massive to ship as well.

Check out Ebay. You may be able to find a prime aftermarket one for around $150. Let me know if you are in the Chicago area. I know a guy on the north side who could do it for you with paint for around $150.
