    S Line front bumper on an SE

    Might seem a stupid question to some but can you fit a complete S line front bumper on to an SE. In other words are the fixings the same. Also did all the S lines come with front headlight washer jets as well or were they an option? Thanks in advance for any advice.

    Sorry, more suspension advice!

    Just had some Sline 18in alloys refurbed and fitted to my SE. As I suspected the gap between the arches and the wheels/tyres is too much for my liking!

    Rear Suspension help needed.

    I own a A4 B7 2.0Tdi and when leaving the close where I live there is a small speed hump. When driving over it earlier I heard a loud crack as if something had snapped! Nothing obvious to see under the car but the rear offside wheel is now sitting lower in to the arch. Looks like a suspension...
