Hey, Members of the alpha race.

I just got my A5 3.0TDI
before I bought this car I intended to do a facelift conversion

I have scoward the internet for information on how to go about FL rs looking it
I mean im doing the backend after, this seems easier than the front

so I was looking at using this bumper

AUDI_A5_2012__TO_RS5_FRONT_BUMPER_CONVERSION AUDI A5 2012+ TO RS5 FRONT BUMPER CONVERSION

I asked xenonsuk and they recon that it will fit the pre-FL a5 if I change the bonnet
the wings should fit.

I have a friend who doses vag com programming so that's sorted

so as the bumpers made for the a5 FL and fits that
dose this mean I don't need a rs5 bonnet and wings
and a normal a5 FL bonnet would work


TLDR

A5 FACELIFT BONNET
XENONUKS BUMPER
OEM HEADLIGHTS FOR FACELIFT

and a few brackets and converters for the lights and some vag com
should it all be this simple?

or am I overlooking some steps

I figured out the cost for the things I have listed at 1800 GBP
so I got my a5 for 6k at an auction with 89,000 miles

cheaper than buying a 15k a5 2013 trust me




I know i have been going on for a while about this but i need to get my facts right before i blow 2500 quid on upgrading my car
 
There's a full write up of doing this in the A5-oc. Even lists all parts needed.

Good luck.
