Default Rear bumper teaser pics

Here are a few pictures of the Replica S4 rear bumper add on mounted on the stock bumper. I will need to have the bumper add on manipulated or purchase a euro A4 bumper which will probably be the direction I go as it will look better and cost less. Here are a few pics of the test fit and remember that it is just being held in place so let me know what you guys think. BY the time I am done this will look almost factory and a lot better then these pictures.

Yeah the bumper needs a little work and everyone has different likes and dislikes but I think when it is all said and done and properly installed and painted it will look good and at least look better then what I have on there now.

That valance is made for an avant. The bumper is shorter on the avant then the sedan. I'd like to see it on your sedan finished. Good luck!

Heres mine to show the near perfect fit on the side

Nice avant!! The bumper on the European sedan is shorter as well so I'm hoping by ordering it, that will solve my problem, Ill find out soon enough and thanks for the pics. Any more of the rear?

Oh I didn't know that. It might be cheaper to find someone that does quality plastic welds and have them extend the sides rather then have a bumper shipped from germany.

Here's a few more pics.

I'm thinking the same thing as I just got quoted about $300 for shipping so I will ask my body shop. Thanks again for the pictures.

Personally I love the euro bumper look - I wish I had masked my valence to simulate it when I painted my lowers. Fred, I think it'll look great once you have it finished.

Me_in_NY, I wish we had known about you - we had an Audi meet here in Binghamton last weekend. Would've loved to have you and your car down here. You should look up member tware4021 on here - he's in Syracuse too.
