Default Does anyone sell a RS4 bumper that fits without the cutting?

I love the look but haven't found anyone in town who has put on a true RS4 bumper and I don't want to be the first for a body shop. I don't like the Rieger (sp?) bumpers, they don't have headlight washers and I don't think they have fog lamps either. Any suggestions or web sites I can look at? Thanks.

Default I know, that is the problem...

I don't want a local body shop to screw it up if they haven't done one before. I am looking for a knock off that looks exactally the same.

Default Really any good bodyshop can do it. My bumper was the first by my bodyshop.

Default An option.

Like you I did not want to be a guinea pig for a local body shop so I went this route... I bought the bumper from Zev and had Mark at Autospeed in NJ modify the bumper. They (Autospeed) have a few installs under their belt and they were the closest shop to me (Pittsburgh) that would do the work. They modified/test fit my bumper on another S4 and then shipped it to me. I then had it painted locally. My friends and I did the install.
