    Differences between S-Line, S5, and Sportback (4Dr) front bumper

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    I was wondering if there are any physical differences between S-Line, S5, and Sportback (4Dr) front bumper since they all have different parts numbers. I just purchased a front S-line looking bumpers from Europe that had a parts number from the sportback. Would this fit an American B8 coupe???

    I'm no expert but I know the S5 and S-line are interchangable, not sure about the SB because we dont have them over here. BUT I would venture to say that it should fit without any problems..... I'm pretty sure the front ends are the same. Someone correct me if I'm wrong..

    I believe the s-line and s5 are identical front bumpers, except the s5 has a slightly different grill pattern. (chrome verticals) The grill themselves for b8 are all interchangeable fitment-wise from a5 to rs5.

    Actually i believe the rs5 has wider side fenders therefore A5/S5 bumpers wont fit

    Actually it would help that i read correctly lmao. yur right the grills are all interchangeable. Im just not sure if the SB front bumper will fit a A5/S5 coupe.

    I purchased an S5 bumper for my B8.5 A5 along with the side grills and hope to have everything here shortly.

    Curious as to why you purchased one all the way from Europe. Shipping must've been very costly!

    SB bumper cover will fit just the same as the coupe ones.

    I thought so too, but I was able to snatch one for about $330 shipped in the color that I want and on top of that a free S-line grill! :) :) :)

    Plus, inventory for used undamaged bumpers here in the states is practically non-existent!

    2013 S-line and S5 front covers are slightly different as the S5 has headlight washers I believe.

    Fitting would be the same
