Last Wednesday, I was involved with a collision. A lady blew through the stop sign. I tried to floor it tryin 2 avoid it but it was too late, she clipped the back driver side bumper/fender area. Now that I'll be getting a new bumper, I was wondering if the V70R AWD, V70 AWD, or V70 XC bumpers would fit onto my 1997 850R wagon. I'm still trying to debate between the 3 different V70 bumpers at the moment. I'm planning on getting a custom dual exhaust which is why I want the V70 bumper with the precut dual exhaust outlet. Something else that I would like to do is have the body shop paint the black trim (of the XC bumper if I go with that) red (which is the same color as my car). Then I would also have to paint the front bumper trim, and door trims red also. I like that color coordinated trim like the x70s. So the questions are:

1) Can the XC, V70R AWD, or V70 AWD bumper fit on my '97 850R wagon without any modifications?

2) Has anyone painted the trim on the 850s? Do I have to sand down the black trim so that its smooth like the x70s trim? The trim on the 850s have small grooves unlike the x70s.
