RS4 bumper vs RS4 bumper??? Why do they look different?
<center><img src="http://www.estrictlyforeign.com/images/webpic3209.jpg.normal.jpg"></center><p>I finally figured out how to use estrictly foreign's website and clicked the RS4 bumper for our cars. The pic above is what came up. I like this bumper much better than the one Primos had and aci99 has now (just personally). The one below is aci99's. Both are referred to as the RS4 bumper, right? I really like the one above and don't want to order one and get the one pictured below. Anyone have any experience with this bumper? How's it fit/install? Thanks.

neither of those are rs2 bumpers
the top picture is close, but not exactly right. the bottom picture is not even close to what the rs2 bumper actually looks like. go to audiquattroparts.com to see a picture of an exact replica, don't buy it from them because it's very expensive there.
also, that strictly foreign bumper is fiberglass, so you may want to think twice about getting that one. if you want a really nice one. ask audi_80, or go to europrice.com

Re:No idea why they look different..I thought I was getting the bumper pictured on the yellow.....
...avant like they have on the website. I didnt bitch and complain since I didn't have a bumper on my car at the time, I was waiting for the parts to come in so I could just install them, and they sent me the one you see in my picture poster...I didnt really care.

Wrong...
The OEM bumpers are VERY fragile. They crack if you look at them sideways, and they CAN'T be repaired. The GRP knock off's require a bit more planning to mount, but they can take quite a bit of abuse, and can be repaired if they crack. Just ask panzerwagen. He's HAPPY with the Sierra bumper I sold him.
