    vw guy at work let me know about that site today, decided to check it out. that lower is noticably not stock to enthusiasts, but i dont think common folk would notice its aftermarket. and on sale for $80? i think that may be a steal of a deal...what do you guys think?

    Re: do you like this front???

    for $80, it seems like youre getting into a mess. it doesnt give much info at all about the product at all. not even a manufacturer... i would pass

    That is clearly one piece and for that cheap it has to be crap quality.

    dont do it. skimping out on price means a crappy fitment later. save if you need to and get somethin legit.

    Re: do you like this front???

    Skip and skip. Not a fan of either look. But if you are, go for it. $80 isn't much for a new front end. However, I agree with the comments above... if the brand / quality can't be confirmed, it's a crap shoot. Anything priced to move like this leads me to believe they're just trying to break even... and at that price it can't be of very high quality.

    Yeah it's B5 RS4 look. Probably not worth it as people have said. And that ^^^ might be the worst bumper I've ever seen for B6

    Re: do you like this front???

    Do it , its only $80, you can't find the worst aftermarket, replica bumper for $80. The fact that its a legitmate manufacturer, your probably getting good quality, it just looks like the design wasn't on the popular side and they have a shit load to get rid of. I dont think its ugly, just bland, but you won't know if you dont order it.

    PS
    Another thing I'm tired of is all these opinion threads people ask for, it' very rare that I'm indifferent about something I want, so I dont know why people on here so often ask for everybody else's approval. Just feeds into the lemming mindstate and if your old enough to remember playing that game, it's wasn't hard for all the lemmings to follow the leader of a cliff.

    Its just the lower piece, for 80 bucks, give it a shot. Thats a well known company, Id say its worth an $80 gamble

    I like it. But I had a S4 front bumper on my B5 and really liked the smoother look, If i didn't have the USP i would think about it, Hell for that price maybe pick up as a spare for winter.

    ^^ actually that front wouldn't be too bad, only if the triangular grille openings were made into a decent and even size, and molded to the shape of the USP lower! because the center looks outstanding! but in a way it looks like the Audi to VW golf conversion!

    i guess at least this is an interesting idea, b/c the grilles are what's so terribly wrong with this thing. someone with body shop skills, patience and a lot of time on their hands try to change the grilles on that thing to look more like the USP ones! it's on sale!

    Oh yeah, good point. Barely noticed the center section with those geometry friendly grille openings. Good idea.

    wait are you saying that they arent selling the bumper for $80 or they are?

    and also, fiberglass is used on a bunch of aftermarket bumpers...
