Default Ok...some help

Well, I came out of my apartment this morning to find that my front bumper had been scraped. No note or anything...very nice of the person huh? So, my insurance said to get 2 estimates. My question is, I know that the b5 s4 bumper will mount up to my 2000 a4 2.8Q, but I was wondering what exactly is involved in the swap? Is it just going to involve the lower spoiler, bumper cover, and grill inserts? or is there more involved? Thanks in advance

...and you have to buy the different fog lights to, and then get it painted. Everything altogether is really expensive.

search your parking lot for a car with a scratch. was there any paint transfer?

and about the s4 bumper, the s4 bumper is completely different than the stock one. its "fuller" has a euro plate spot in the front and comes down lower.





the s4 bumper looks soooo much sexier IMO

Looks basically the same to me, just goes a little lower. So sideskirts might be a must.

Yea, I looked all over my apartment complex along with the help of my local police and found nothing...anyways, I think that I'm just gonna take the check from the insurance and buy me an aftermarket front bumper...what do you all think of this one? Any others you all like or would suggest? Any tips?

It looks pretty good. If that happened to me I would do the same thing.
