Default 2004 A8 front bumper/grille change to 2005 model - how?

Hi!
I have an 2004 A8 with an old "face", i've checked ETKA and found that theoretically I can replace my front bumper/grille/hood to the new big grille, like 2005-2007 models has. If anyone has this change experience, could you send me parnums, links or some helpful info about this procedure? (I have some defects on my hood and decide to change them...:-))

Thanks in advance.

Don't forget the headlamps and all the trim pieces.

Default We have helped a few customers with this

There are lots of parts that are required and it can be a little pricey. I think we have a list at the office with a full breakdown of the hardware needed.

Because my neighbour took a D2 to large grill conversion kit and spent a lot of time adjust it to car.

In your kit they use OEM grille and bumper itself is made from what?

Default LL TEK Conversion.

It is used with a OEM Grill, the bumper is made by Hofele and to be honest I' am not sure what it is made from it is light it is not heavy at all.
