The S5 fenders bolt differently to the nose than the S4. you may need to drill some holes. No biggy
maybe use the bumper strips from the S4

Yeah i think the S5 fenders have a differnt offset where the bumper fits in(at the edges of the fender and bumper). Makes the bumper fit but tightly in and close the gap in the front.

S5 will fit perfectly fine on a S4. The only thing as mentioed is the moldings. The moldings are in the exact same place, just a different design.

This is a pic of my old S4 TII with the S5 bumper. Sorry its not to clear (no digital back then lol) so i know first hand

it's painless



the bumper bolts to the fenders/chasis fine and all you need to replace is the molding.



I put the bumper on myself.............
