Default The verdict is in for OEM RS4 bumper

Ok the body shop able to put in my OEM RS4 bumper, it fit ok, we will take out and re-fit it again, I was in hurry so I told them just to put it on... I will post more detail picture later on what happen, since the darn people from Achtunning.com try to keep it secret.....for now this is how it look.

As you can see it got a little gap between the hood and the bumper, this is also happen on my old S4 bumper, so I am not sure it it can be fix

Looks pretty good -- can you post a close up of the part where it meets the hood/fenderline?

Default Agreed, the RS4 style latice looks much better -- go OEM and paint it (another reason why silver is

faster -- no need to paint the OEM RS4 grill).
