anubis 0 Posted May 9, 2005 I think you need the sideskirts to match the RS4 bu,per, or the car looks odd from side on. From what I've seen on some Corrados, you can get away without doing the rear. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
golfg60 0 Posted May 10, 2005 Personally i would fit side skirts just to continue the depth all the way around. I have seen corrados with rs bumpers, skirts and standard rear bumbers and they look good. Having said that i don't think Henny has side skirts (correct me if i'm wrong??) and his looks good..... How is the late bumper different from the early one? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
woody 0 Posted May 10, 2005 When i had my RS intercooler conversion i had a RS 4 bumper smoothed the grills on the sides but could not have sideskirts as i would have beached the car at every speed hump. I will find a photo tonight Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Henny 0 Posted May 13, 2005 Have a look in J-Dub's gallery (link below)... She had the first Reiger ABS plastic RS4 bumper in the UK and didn't have any side skirts... The bumper is now fitted (properly and painted too!) to Blue_Joe's car and looks spot on... 8) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Graham_E 0 Posted May 13, 2005 bloody hell! did u actually manage to get anywhere with it that low...thats v. nice though. I can imagine that even squashed road kill could prove a problem with that front bumper. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
woody 0 Posted May 14, 2005 it was fun, now having it rebuilt with an RS2 bumper which seems to have a little more clearance for the ants to get under. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
