If you are going to do the front then you are best doing the lot as the front bumper is different and so is the rear, you can use the front wings (some trimming round the headlight part as stated) but the give away is the indicators but saying that who cares.

You may want to think about putting the S4 bumper looks way better.

My car is fitted with One piece aftermarket halo projectors, now does that mean that the wing work has already been done to allow these one piecers to fit or do one piece aftermarket halo projectors fit on pre facelift cars

na your ok those halo lights come for most a4s and dont need any modding

docurley, where can you get hold of that S4 bumper? It looks awesome! Also, where did you get the RS4 arches from and can I get an Avant version?

thanks

The best place to get the S4 bumper is Audi but if you are lucky they do pop up on ebay but are quite rare. your other option is some one like vagparts.com that may sell them cheaper than Aud.

Now for the RS4 arches, well the cheapest place is ebay.de other wise they are around £250 each for the fronts and £400+ for the rear new from Audi.

The RS4 arches where only ever made for the Avant so no problem if you have an avant to start with.
