Are S4 bumpers hard to find or did you get that busted one for free kinda deal?
#45
They are in fact that hard to find. U don't wanna know what I paid for this one. Haha a new cover, no support just a shell runs 800-1k. Used in good shape with support and no grills or filler plate runs $600 if Ur lucky. Usually 800.
Thank u sir!

They are in such demand because every a4 owner wants them and every s4 owner needs a new one because they trash them. So the used market is very difficult to find one in good shape. And yes oem rs4 ones are a ton. And then 800 to get it shipped to the states. I'm not a fan of the rs4 ones really. :/ but I do want a euro s4 rear which I need like 1100 and then. 800 to ship.

This proves that owning MK3's make you the dumbest people ever!
Do you honestly think a $70000 European only cars bumper is going to be cheap?
Since you are obviously as dumb a zacher now, here is link to what a mans bumper costs

Not just a bumper cover, a bumport support and fog lights as wellwhich the fogs alone sell for 100 a piece.

Euro RS6 bumpers are the same thing as US RS6 bumpers
But either way, you need all the same parts for a b5 to convert to an RS4 bumper, shocks, grilles, waher covers, etc
Its not hard math retard, if your car cost 15k new your mk3 bumper is dirt cheap and still a piece of crap, if you car cost 80k your RS6 bumper is going to cost alot
#61
Show me where to buy one, Ill wait
So mid section of Phaeton bumper cover is $740, and takes 6 more pieces to make complete which total to $1800
And that doesnt include grilles, park sensors, or headlight washers. Guess what, back up to that 3k range to replace a bumper if it was hit
SO SIT DOWN

LOL. Sorry OP, this is why I didn't want to continue to bicker.
$740 is list, they are $541. You and your inflated dealership prices.That low price is good for covers with or without the parking sensors. And we were talking about covers only, not all the components boss. Vento front bumper covers are $579 just for the cover alone. This is hilarious.

Hey Jordan do you still have you 1.8t engine? How good condition is it? Pm me

And just got the best text message ever, 6 speed swap parts are all found and on
hold for me while I make payments. Trans, driveshaft, rear diff, all 4 axles, hub
assemblys, brakes, subframes, suspension. Fu** yes

Bumper looks good filled and shaved with grille surrounds
And nice 6spd score, B5's drive soooo much better with the 4.11 r/p instead of the 5spd ratio
