Question about US and Canadian S4 bumper

[littlewhite]

Besides the Canadian S4 bumper dont have fogs, is everything the same? Can it fit in a US A4 ? Cant really find much answer, so i hope i can have some here. Thanks

[SEXICÄN]

why not call your audi dealer and ask them. they should know

[littlewhite]

They dont, but i called stealership up in BC and found answers.

Would you really want to go without fogs?

[littlewhite]

The guy's S4 bumper, he put OEM S4 fogs in. Anyway, but now i'm afraid i will get TAX big crossing the border. I'll have to see what i do.

As far as I know the bumper is the same just the Canadian Model just doesn't have fogs and the side grills are different (no provisions for fogs)

true that. Grilles are a big smaller. thx

[Ben@SpeedBarn]

Yeah the only difference is the two outer grills. They have no holes for the fogs. On my last s4 bumper(american) i put canadian grills in it. Otherwise they are exactly the same.

Cool, thanks for the info. Whats the rebar ?? The guy said it doesnt have a rebar since it was taken out to put on his aftermarket bumper. DOes he mean the support ? Can i use the rebar/support from my car with the S4 bumper ???

Being an American living in Canada I can tell you that you will be taxed. You can have the seller declare the value as lower to avoid paying TONS of tax, but there will still be some.

Some do u mean they will probably take whatever is retail on the S4 bumper and tax it ? So around 9% in WA state ?

Crap, you know when I lived in the US I never bought from Canada but in Canada I ONLY buy stuff fromt he US. I know in Canada they charge you sales tax on the set value. Are you buying from an individual or company?

Used from someone in Canada maybe.

dude, you live in seattle, why not just drive up there and get it? Probably cheaper to just pay for gas than to pay the tax

[$teady$upreme]

don't worry bro, i will go check out the bumper first, then let u know.

no rebar is ok, since u can still use your rebar from your A4. tax? for sure, as long as i ask the seller to write u a receipt to declare the value of the bumper, u are set to go man. don't worry too much, wait for my good news yo~

We are talking bring it cross custom.

[SEXICÄN]

I don't understand the problem still...

[littlewhite]

Taking the bumper back to the states. You need to cross custom and its a bitch since they dont like car parts.

[Ben@SpeedBarn]

what are you gonna do with your a4 bumper? If you don't want it just leave it in canada and wear the s4 one home. They will never know.

[SEXICÄN]

that is a good point.

[$teady$upreme]

maybe sell the A4 front in Vancouver? try posting on vwdov man~

Probably going to sell my stock bumper. LOL ~ I will look stupid for 2+ hrs with an imola S4 bumper on black car

[littlewhite]

How about REBAR? Since the S4 bumper dont have a rebar, can i use the one on my stock A4 ?? I heard when removing the rebar, the stock bumper will break/crack. Also, can the stock A4 rebar fit/work on the S4 bumper ???
