    Question for those that have fit a C7.5 rear bumper/diffuser to a C7 S-line bumper

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    Looking for information from those that have retrofitted a C7.5 Rear bumper valance/diffuser into an S-line C7 bumper. What exactly did you have to do to get it to fit? Did you have to trim the diffuser or the actual bumper?

    Curious because I found a good deal on a C7.5 rear valance and I prefer the look of it over the OEM S6 diffuser for the C7.

    Unfortunately, I haven't seen a single case of someone retro-fitting a C7.5 S6/S7 valance on to a C7 bumper. Sounds like you need the actual C7.5 bumper to go along with it.
    I'm not sure how "plug n play" the bumper would be..
    We need to commission someone in the Far East to produce a facelift valance to fit the C7 cars!

    For real. I've seen people retrofit c7.5 aftermarket valances to work with c7 bumpers, but no oem swaps.

    Yes, but...

    The aftermarket C7.5 knockoff was designed for the pre-facelift bumper cover.

    Here is a video of a C7.5 S7 diffuser installed on a C7 A7.
    Not sure how they did it.

    They also swapped the bumper cover for a C7.5 one in that video.
