They do fit.
They fit absolutely fine.
I had one.

well it is issue if you wanna put wings of S3 to A3. Problem is below the threshold of the mount there is different because A3 dont have same front completion of the thresholds - have that in mind.
... bumper from S3 to A3 looks like this ...

The s3 bumper looks to fit a lot more snug than the standard a3 bumper that's the only thing I don't like about my car there is a few ml gap between headlights and bonnet. May get one myself
Fits no problem... I have s3 front and back bumpers on my a3 1.8t. Not a problem at all! Only issue is tht inner arch liners dnt quite match up to bumpers but not a issue really.

i dont see how the gap between the bonnet and headlights is anything to do with an S3 bumper fitment

Just bumper fit in general but with the on the s3 bumpers on an a3 that I've seen they are all nice and tight with hardly any gap I've got a good few mm gap on mine s&@t bumper maybe definitely s&@t fitting

The gap you have is because you have non-OE head lights by the looks of things... Some of the aftermarket ones are a TERRIBLE fit!

Those headlights are the problem at the front.
The reason it doesn't meet the wing properly is because of the guides under the bumper being distorted.

Ahh I've had it off today cut the plates behind properly the top and side fits nicely now but underneath is a nice big gap lol they are depo headlights. So I have to order another set then..
As you can see the huge gap at the top before and after I re aligned them still a HUGE gap underneath though. Sorry to go on and hijack your thread haha
