I have indeed verified with my source in Germany that the lower inserts will not work with the OEM S6 bumper. The only part from the RS6 bumper that fits the OEM S6 bumper is the center grille.
I ordered the center matte alu center grille since it matched the rest of my OEM front and side mirrors. It should arrive in a few weeks and I will post pics.
So in conclusion, yes we can source the complete OEM RS6 bumper in either matte alu or carbon fiber for a hefty price. At this price you still need to get it painted since it arrives just primed.
I opted for keeping my S6 bumper and replacing the center grille from the RS6. This still gives me a much more aggressive front end at a fraction of the cost.
Cheers
btw - the grille will look like this without the euro plate.

I would love that mesh grille but I think the aluminum grille would look a lot better on my estoril blue than the black. I love the RS5 grille.

I would assume the grill (not front bumper) should be a direct replacement fit and doesn't have anything to do with the fenders. But I haven't heard anyone confirm this yet with an actual part.

Sorry for the delay, but it has been a hectic several weeks between work and having had to get ready for Waterfest 19 last weekend.
Good News
My German contact informed me that we can get the complete RS6 bumper with fender conversion kit. The bumper arrives primed and ready to be painted.
Bad News
Cost
Complete RS6 Front with alu matte spoiler and inserts 8399USD
Complete RS6 Front with carbon spoiler and inserts 14350USD
Additional are black LED headlights from the RS6 available.
Set 6590USD
Hope this helps...cheers

Could trade the S6 for an RS7 for cheaper than that......
