    Are the S Line and S6 bumpers interchangeable?

    What about the grilles?

    Just out of curiosity, will a S6 or RS6 bumper (front and rear) fit a 2014 A6 pre-facelift?

    For rear bumpers, I think they are all interchangeable without issue. For the front bumpers, the S6 one - yes, that is just the S-line bumper on the A6 so it's interchangeable. The RS6 bumper is a bit different - if you go OEM from Europe it will fit per se, but the front fenders won't match your stock fenders (they are wider on the OEM RS6 front end). You can go aftermarket RS6 styled bumper which I and many other guys have done - that one bolts on relatively easily but all of them will have fitment issues to negotiate. Xenonz (sp?) is the best aftermarket one it seems. Plan on potentially needing to recalibrate your ACC system which is a bit pricey (~$700) after the bumper install is done if you have the Driver Assistance pkg.

    PM with any other questions as I went through the bumper swap in late 2018 and might be able to help if you get stuck.

    I don't have ACC so that shouldn't be an issue, so basically the S-LINE front bumper will bolt right on, just the RS6 won't. Gotcha, I havent seen the Xenonz one, but I will search for it. Thank you.

    What year front bumpers will fit the 2014 A6? Will the 2016-2017 S-Line fit? Just trying to find my choices of bumpers that will fit.

    Those are different bumpers. There was a facelift from 2016 onwards and the bumpers are a different shape
