    B8 avant REAR bumper options

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    I'm planning out my modifications I love that my a4 avant has dual exhaust tips but the plastic valence in between just doesn't match the premium look of rest of the car.
    I have searched and searched without success.

    What are the b8 avant specific part numbers for the s-line, s4, and rs4 rear bumper covers?

    Is there a place that sells them?

    It doesn't answer your question, but one of the local guys just had his rear valance hydro dipped cf and personally it turned out really well.

    I don't think you're looking for a bumper cover; what you are looking for is a diffusor/valance. Use google and search B8 diffusor and the Internet will reward you with options & info.

    Yes that is an option but it doesn't hurt to know all of my options. Plus if we have a thread with the info it will help many people in the future.

    Side question: are sedan and avant valences the same?

    B8 options are either s-line or non-sline;each with their specific valances, which are not interchangeable. You cannot swap the sedan version due to the difference in exhaust (with the exception of the 3.2 sedan offered in 2009).

    You can get a euro s4 avant to fit or aftermarket options like rieger, caractere, hoefel, etc. or cheap Chinese eBay crap

    Also non s-line bumper will not accept s-line valance and vice versa. I think s4 and s-line valances work with the s-line bumper and non s-line with the non s-line bumper. YMMV with aftermarket options.

    Europrice may be worth speaking to

    In the same boat, does not compliment the aesthetics of the rest of the car. I have determined if I want to upgrade my valence then I'll need an s-line bumper cover for everything to fit properly. No sense in buying the cheap eBay crap that claims it will work.

    I've been doing a little digging recently as well. Does anyone else like the appearance of the facelift avant s-line cover and diffusor? Probably a bear to source but a unique look for us here in the States. This could really tie the rear end together nicely for those that have FL tail lights.

    Second picture below shows the difference between 2012 and 2013.

    Those look nice, I bet they're hard to come by like you say.
