Default Will an OEM S4 bumper fit?

I have searched with a variety of answers - so I thought it best to ask again...

I have a 97 A4, but have already upgraded to year 2000 (facelift) bumpers.

What I would like to know is - will an OEM S4 bumper fit WITHOUT modification? Or do will it still have to be shaped, moulded, etc?

The wife works for Audi so I can get it for cost - but want to know how hard it will be to have it fit to the car.

Any advice GREATLY appreciated.

Default So, essentially I could order it, paint it and bolt it straight on?

OK - test fit it before painting it - but it should be a perfect fit straight off?

Default I got her the job...

...after I bought my Audi. My piece of crap always needs parts. Figured it was the best way for me to afford to keep it on the road.

Default even with a dealer parts discount, I bet you could still find things cheaper online at WorldImpex,

PureMS and the like.

at least, that was my experience with my '95 90 when my wife worked for an Audi/Pcar dealer.
