RS2 front bumper

[Pantelis Giamarellos]

Fellow quattro listers,

There has been a discussion about the availability of RS2 lookalike (that is
non genuine AUDI items) front bumpers from owners of 80/90 (4000 in the
States) cars.

Yesterday while driving from my hometown to Athens I spotted a company which
according to what they say specialize in duplicating plastic bumpers.

If anyone or a group of you is interested I could go there and ask them more
details about duplicating the front bumper of my RS2.

What will be needed from you side will be to establish that the mounting
points of the RS2 original bumper actually connect to those available on the
plain (?) 80/90/4000 bodyshells.

I believe that the "eyebrows/trims" between the front light clusters and the
front bumper will be also necessary if the RS2 light clusters are to be
used.

In addition it is logical that you will need the wire mesh covering the
intercooler and side vents and also the foglight and side indicator
clusters. Foglights and side indicator may traced from PORSCHE or AUDI and
the meshings can be either bought/ordered from AUDI or maybe be made along
the duplicate bumper. This will have to be established after contacting the
company here in Greece.

So..

If there is some interest about it I can take a drive there and have their
input about the possibility of having a duplicate copy of an RS2 bumper and
whether this will be also including at least the wire meshing covers. And of
course an indicative price. Handling to the States or elsewhere and tax or
duties (from your side) will have to be added on the price.

Take care and I am waiting for your replies either through the list or
directly to pantg at otenet.gr
