Default bumper questions

so i have a s4 front bumper right now but am not to crazy about the little grills in it i was wondering if i could get mesh replacement for the three areas, if not should i just go with a rs4 bumper or a replica one if it doesnt fit?


also i changed my oil about 1,800 miles ago and at first it did say anything in my little dash screen but now its saying service oil. i checked the level and color of the oil and it all seems to be in tip top shape. do i need to resent the cmputer when i change it or whats the deal im worried

thanks

you can replace the grilles with mesh, i did it with my old s4 bumper and am running similar in my kerscher. you should go to a steel/metal place and get Expanded Steel Mesh

as for the oil, it should just be your service interval light, which will need to be reset. usually the dealership can do it for ya. mine has been blinking forever...i just ignore it hah

you'd want expanded steel mesh for the grilles, like i said. You can find this stuff at home depot sometimes, but the best place would be to go to a steel or metal place. they will have different sizes and styles.

the bumper in my pic is the Kerscher
