been looking about for a while for an s3 bumper and i have managed to find one. Ive looked through various posts on here but found no propper answers to if they fit or not.

i am aware that s3's have wider rear arches but will the s3 bumper line upto my rear arches ok with out any modifications??? I dont know the year of the bumper as someone brought it for a project and doesnt know the year of it either but i dont know if they are any diff on the non facelift or facelift models??

will i need to buy any new guide rails for the bumper to line up ok???

any help will be much appreciated.
 
i have a rear forsale, check classifieds :)
 
The rear's hit and miss

you may or may not need new rails wont know till you put the bumper on to try - the s3 bumpers are the same for all years

If you want the exhaust to show in the right place you'll need to cut away a blanking plate and have a new backbox/pipes made up

Or you could cheat, leave the real exhaust hidden and cut out just enough of the blanking plate to sit a set of fake pipes in securely
