New guy here from Ohio. I am a graphic designer in Columbus, Ohio. I have always been a car guy and I dabble in many different types of cars. I have everything from VW and Audi to a 1932 Ford Hot Rod. I recently bought a black C5 4.2 A6 that was in a light front end collision. I want to put the RS6 front bumper on the car since I have to buy a bumper anyway. The car is currently apart and I have a new fender and headlight that I got from Shokan. If anyone has a bumper, even one that needs slight repair, I would be interested. I will also be looking for some decent coilovers too. I hope I am welcome here even tho I don't technically have as cool of a car as you guys. I am hoping I can make some minor upgrades to mine with the items you guys are selling off.

Did you get RS6 front fenders?

Fenders and hood are the same....for 4.2 and for the RS6. All aluminum.

That is correct, I have the 4.2 aluminum sheet metal, which is identical to RS6 sheet metal. I will have to modify the 4.2 bumper bar and maybe shorten the bumper shocks slightly to get the RS6 cover to fit properly. It is pretty close to a direct bolt-up. (on the 4.2 cars)

I haven't seen many F/R bumpers for sale, even on AZ or QW or Ebay or Craigslist....not to say I am searching for one.
They go pretty quick when one is dropped in front of a crowd..
