Default Will S6 front bumper swap onto A6? Stoney addresses the grills in FAQ.

Want to upgrade front end while in shop for wreck repair. Shop said that they had done it for an A4/S4 but required additional labor/clips. Cost difference between bumpers is minimal. TIA.

Default It will probably not fit a 2.7T but maybe a 4.2

Don't no for certain but Audi put a different front end on the 4.2 to accomodate teh 4.2 V8. The S6 uses the same engine and has the same fender flares...

Would probably not fit 2.7T/2.8/3.0, they don't have the same front end as V8 models (4.2/S6)

No probably about it, it won't fit a non-4.2.

The whole nose end is different - hood, fenders, bumper. I don't believe they'd mesh up.
