So I can get an S4 bumper to replace my stock bumper from my deer hit.

Problem is: What sides do I get to coalate (sp?) with the s4 bumper?

Stock S4's ( Spendy?)

Other?

None?

I can get them painted real cheap. so thats not a problem

 

i'd just wait until you found a set of oem s4 sides. there's a set for sale on the audizine classifieds, not sure if they're still available.

 

Thats what I was thinking... get the bumper and find a pair of sides...

I dont think it will look all that bad...

Will I need ALL the parts? or just the skirts?

 

i think just the skirts is all you'll need. there will probably be a few plastic clips that will break when you remove the old skirts too. i don't think it would look bad with just the bumper. it won't look exactly right, but it's not so extreme that it will look ricey.

Whats with all those parts?

 

You wanted "correlate."

Get S4s. You'll be fine for a while without sides, but S4s are the best looking by far, unless you get RS4s, which i'm sure are even more expensive. Try the audizine classifieds, like bent said.

Try audiworld for those kind of part number answers. B5 FAQ

 

Yeah the hardware to install the S4 skirts is EXPENSIVE.

 

a deer hit huh, that's unlucky :\
the previous owner of my b5 hit a tire on the freeway and was forced to replace the front bumper.

 

kinda lucky for me.. im getting a new bumper, new fender, hew headlight, repainted hood and alot of dents/scratches removed.

I'll try to get some skirts.. hopefully.. What do you guys define as "Expensive" sides?

 

you got these from
http://www.audiworld.com/tech/ext.html "Installing S4 Lower Trim"

its because there is a bunch of clips and hardware that will be needed.



youu could go with these, http://www.lltek.com/images/caractek...t_skirts_Z.jpg expensive though. but yo u will save on all the hardwaere expenses
