When I began my search for the XC grille, I looked around for a long time - they pop up on ebay now and then. A new grille from the dealer is going to be slightly more that $200. I got mine from www.volvosaabparts.com - it's this giant salvage yard place in California. You can look around on their site, but if you want to order something or check availability, you have to give them a call. I think it cost me $125 plus shipping. They were good guys to deal with. The grill itself was in great shape (the poor ol' XC from which it came got hit in the side). I cleaned it up a little with a old toothbrush & some 409.

Later on, I sold my original grille to someone else for roughly $50.

So, my out-of-pocket cost was below $100.
