A4 (B5-B7) Front bumper / grille conversion PROJECT
Got the new grille in today from like China or somewhere crazy, $62 shipped to my door (factory oem grille). Smoothed out both sides above the air ducts, and the sharp 90 degree body line on each side. This is not anywhere close the a "finished" bumper, i just primed one side for a few pictures. Anyways the project is getting closer and i hope to have ALL mounting brackets finished within the next few weeks. I don't get very much time to work on this project, sorry for the delayed pics and progress. After mounts i'll probably chop the hood and tackle the other half of this project ( molding the hood attachment and fabricating a latch system). Let me know what you think! Go back to my "test-fit" pics to see the difference in the bumper. Thanks










nice work. I think it'll definitely need more modification to be pulled off. also more body/suspension/wheel mods.. just wondering, how are you going to make the hood work? will you just cut and mold on that extension to the end and make a new latch?
The hood isn't as impossible as people might think. I'll simply cut off what won't fit, and mold on the extension. Should come out fairly clean. And yea there should be twice the room for an even larger intercooler than you can fit with a B5 bumper.
