bumpers put on their narrow body cars for quite some time.... a good shop can heat shrink/mold or cut the bumper to make it fit... so why not do the same for the RS6 bumper on the narrow body A6s?

I actually saw a nice debagged A4/S4 Avant in San Franciso a couple weeks ago with that.

I thought the S6 front ends were wider like the 4.2 sedan? Is the RS6 even wider?

Default We have an RS6 rear bumper in stock for this purpose. I am not sure of fitment

but we have a customer who wants to try it. Hopefully I'll shed some light on this subject soon.
