[Closed] Totally OT. Where can I get a grille badge for my Volvo S80D?

After a small bump a few months ago, I had to silicone on my grille badge. It's now fallen off somewhere. Is there somewhere online selling such things? Tried all my local scrappies with no joy. There's a few being broken and sold on ebay but the sellers obviously feel that just selling a badge ain't worth their time, as they don't respond.

Dealership? Or if I'm going past the scrappies over the weekend I'll ask, is it specific for the S80D or will any other badge from different model do?

Is it awesome?
Try on the bay, a lot of breakers advertise on that these days..
I would always prefer going to the scrappy though- much more fun!

Try the partsgateway website. I was forever replacing bits that fell off my Fiat Bravo from there.

Cheers guys - had completely forgotten I'd asked this! Albanach, I reckon any Volvo badge would fit, so if you happen to be passing a scrappie, I'd be grateful if you had a root round.

Too scared to ask a dealership - I'm thinking £60 for the part 🙁

Harry, will go have a look at that site, ta!

T5D5.org, Volvo Owners Club (VOC) or the other one I can't remember right now will be able to help.

I've been pleasantly surprised at the cost of some odds and ends out of the dealership. Well worth asking IMO.

T5D5 have a link to one of the main dealers who will give you a discount if you contact via the form on the site too.

eBay will be by far the cheapest option.

As luck might have the guy I sit next to at work just crashed his Volvo into a ditch* and looks like it's a write off and the badge is in good shape I'll post it over to you.

*he is OK so there is no blood anywhere near the grill.
