ok I know there was a thread about this not to long ago, but i couldnt find it. How hard is it and what do I need to do to get an S5 front bumper on an S4? Is there anyone here who has done this?

j9fd3s 01-29-2005 12:58 PM

everyone and their brother has done this since the 89's came out (people used to buy wrecked 86's and steal an 89 to put it together)



um you need the bumper and the reinforcement behind it.

Rob x-7 01-29-2005 03:19 PM

you may want to reuse the rubber "gasket" from the S4 bumper to make up the space difference

drunkin_idiot 01-29-2005 04:30 PM

Thats it? No side moldings or any of that has to be done?

Rob x-7 01-29-2005 04:56 PM

side moldings wont quite match, you can get S5 moldings, but then you will also need a S5 rear bumper to complete the package

drunkin_idiot 01-29-2005 05:34 PM

damnit! How does it look with out the side moldings? Will it look like ****?

side mouldings dont have to be done, it looks wierd with the wrong ones though.



i dont think it looks bad without the door mouldings, but you need the ones at each end, the lights look odd sticking out by themselves

Rob x-7 01-31-2005 09:11 AM

Cash works, or a positive entry into my Paypal Account

drunkin_idiot 01-31-2005 08:21 PM

How much for the black one my good man.

Rob x-7 01-31-2005 08:42 PM

never mind, I always save things until the car is done, I still have that bumper

drunkin_idiot 01-31-2005 09:00 PM

Well rob what you want for the bumper

Lionheart240 01-31-2005 09:34 PM

I'd be interested in a "Blaze Red" S5 front bumper.

Rob x-7 01-31-2005 09:56 PM

its not my bumper to sell, its Teknics

drunkin_idiot 01-31-2005 10:04 PM

Teknics get ur ass in this thread and give me that bumper for free!!!!

teknics 02-01-2005 11:09 AM

i have a "blaze red" front and rear bumper.



both need to be repainted, rear bumper has cosmetic problems, the molding part of the bumper is umm odd i guess you could call it. it like cracked on the molding.



both bumpers if bought would probably need some paint unless you dont care about spider cracks and ****.



kevin.

drunkin_idiot 02-01-2005 11:29 AM

Well I would have to repaint them anyways, my cars black.
