Plastic spoiler from 740T HP

In australia volvo brought out a model called the 740T HP with some more ponies under the bonnet and instead of the rubber spoiler most of us have, it had a plastic/glass/whatever spoiler. I want one. Anyone know where i'd get one from?

Probably had turbo + or turbo ++ (+++) (or b230et?). Haven't ever heard of it though... good luck! Is it maybe just a painted version of the rubber one?
 
Hi chandler

The HP had a little lip that sat the top back corner of the boot lid and normal turbo had a opition of a bigger spoiler that sat on top of the boot lid. The only places you will find these are at a wrecking yard if you are lucky or new from volvo Aus. Below are link to photos the black car is a 740HP and the red one is a normal turbo

PS The HP turbo cars had B230ft with a turbo plus kit they are all manual gearbox only and different boot spoiler and 16 inch gemini wheel fitted standard. And they sell for Aus $2000to $2500 more than the normal turbo

If you can't find a 740 spoiler a 850 boot spoiler will fit and look good these can be bought a most places that sell aftermarket bodykits. Below is a picture of a 740 with a 850 spoiler fitted

Are you talking about the little "lip" on the trunk? If so, I know where to get a NEW oem one. I just bought one myself, but I'll warn you they're steep - about US $300.
 
ive been looking for one also, even asked roller-T where to get one cuz he's got one on his 740, but $300???????!?!?!?!??! screw that

Besides the pic of the 850 spoiler on the 740 looks awsome
