Rear Bumper Bar

Everything that doesn't belong in the previous categories probably belongs here. Interiour (how are the seats mounted? how to remove the CEM?) and exteriour (how to replace the popup-lights shock absorbers or a door) are discussed here!

Rear Bumper Bar

Post by CaptainQwerty » Sun Apr 05, 2015 12:32 am

Hello all,

My rear bumper support bar is some what rotten - Anyone have any advice on a replacement or repair that would be sensible.

Photos can be found on here; http://volvo480.premiercarscumbria.co.u ... it-begins/

The whole bumper could be shook while it was on - I have started work on the rot on the shell as its just patches but that bumper bar needs a bit more than some grinding down and painting haha.

Thanks.

From your photo's I understand this is an impact absorbing box located behind the black trim under the bumper?
after over 10 years parted with the 1995 Volvo 480 ES 2.0

That is correct. All the metal has rotted away
