Non S-Line to S-Line questions....

**AudinLA** · 02-05-2010 06:00 PM

I have to replace my front end on my non S-Line B7 thanks to a lovely uninsured woman who trashed my car!!
Anyway, my question is... What parts would I need to put an S-Line front end on my car and will an S4 grille fit a regular SLine bumper.
If anyone out there has the actual part numbers, that would also be helpful since Audi don't seem to be able to give me the correct ones!
Cheers!!

Do you not have uninsured motorist protection? I thought that was a given on almost all policies these days.

not it does cost more for the Uninsured motorist...

uninsured motorist aka comprehensive is an optional adder. All that is required by state law is liability aka you pay if you mess up someone else's car.

To the OP... are you not suing her for the damage?

I did have uninsured but still have to payout the deductible ($1000) and the car rental (about $200 per week) and the repairs will take about 4 weeks since the whole front end is being replaced!! Suing her would be fruitless..it would cost me money and i'd win but it would take ages and she hasn't any money anyway. She was driving with expired insurance documents, ran a stop sign, drove away from the scene after the accident but returned 20 mins later... and the police at the scene didn't even press charges!! Hopeless!!!

"jriddle11" You are awesome!! How can you know these things and Audi NOT!!! I went in to Audi and they gave me these part numbers...
8E0-807-105-AA-GRU (definitely not an S-Line bumper... has an extra splitter piece on the bottom etc and has holes for the headlight washers....).
8E0-853-651-K-VMZ (GRILLE - the black S4 one - awesome - presuming this will fit standard SLine bumper).
8E0-807-287-D-3FZ (Trim - i wanted the Ti edition plate delete blackout one, but the one that came was black with the plate holder)
8E0-807-681-F-01C Grill
8E0-807-682-F-01C Grill (same as yours)
I'm presuming i can reuse the marker lights of my non S-line.
Also, don't the S-Line bumpers come without washer nozzles??

Thanks for all your expertise.

No problem, I just searched the forum and found everything. I also thought about going from a non-sline to s-line but I went with the DTM instead.

Yes you can re-use the markers and no I don't believe the s-line bumper comes without the washer nozzles. That isn't really that big of a deal because the DTM also had the washer nozzles, but all the body shop did was use some type of glue to hold them in place.

Good Luck

Question...when you installed the DTM bumper, did you leave off the undertray? It seems that it wouldn't fit because the bumper doesn't reach back far enough underneath to attach to the tray?? How usefull is the tray...is it just a dust/dirt thing??
