D2 PF bumpers...all the same?
Hi almighty knowledgeable A8/S8 people,
I need to replace the front bumper on my 1998 PF S8, it has previously been split and repaired and a recent interaction with a speedbump has split the repair. As it is now in the ownership of someone who doesn't do bodge jobs, I'm keen to put a new one on instead. In the process of doing this, I'd like to delete the headlight washers and use the plain bumpers from the 2.8. My question is...are all the bumpers the same shape/style on PF cars? Will any bumper fit any car or are the ones for the S8 a different style/shape? Any help most appreciated. Cheers Chris

If you've got Xenons the washers are a "legal" requirement, well inside the EU at least.

You should be able to drop any PF bumper on...
Though if you've got Xenons, then the MOT folks might get funny about not having washers.

Hello,
Any Pre-Facelift bumper will fit however if you need a bumper with HLW and you get one without HLW Audis procedure is to cut a hole for the jet either side.... Infact you could even fit a facelift bumper if you wanted... Here is one fitted to a prefacelift car - it fits exactly the same and bolts straight on.  I think it looks a lot more aggressive but still in keeping with the factory look plus the bonus of foglights in the bumper! We have one in stock at the moment - Please give me a call if you wish to discuss. 01642 783537. Kind regard, Dave
