2005+ front end conversion for ''04's and before
hi all,
i have noticed that some people have done the front end conversion on their pre '05 a8's to the newer style grill and bumper setup. does anybody have a diy, part list, or anything similar to do this? i have an '04 and need this done to my car.
thanks

Call Mike at parts4audis.com He can help you with parts list / kits. Phone numbers are listed on the website.
I never bought from him but instead stumbled into his warehouse by accident as it is two doors down from the (now former) Bally offices in Temecula. Only reason I knew it was there was because a freshly painted shell of a VW Scirocco was on a trailer in back and when I went over to look at it, the warehouse overhead door was open and I saw racks of VW & Audi parts which, as you can imagine got me to walk in and start gabbing!
Nice guy from Pennsylvania who move West over 20 years ago. Tons of VW / Audi experience. Many years at the dealer parts department level.
He had several Audi upgrade facia kits in stock. As you can imagine, the boxes they come in are quite large!<ul><li><a href="http://www.parts4audis.com">http://www.parts4audis.com</a</li></ul>

since you'll be changing the whole front why not get the S8 front end. madaudi has it for $1320

Re: This would only work for an 06+ though...
i don't think the lights and hood are different although i may be wrong. i thought only the grill/bumper was. my apologies if i'm incorrect.
