FC s4 and s5 exterior q's

are the only cosmetic (exterior) differences between a s4 and s5 T2 the front bumper, back bumper, and taillights? i got a white s4 T2 with black moldings and i need to know which parts i need to buy to convert the exterior to 100% s5.

p.s. are the skirts and fenders the same on both versions? its probably just me but for some reason they might look a little different.

post pics of your car..............and you'll need the S5 side moldings. What do you plan on doing to your 7 after the S5 conversion?

S5 fenders have holes to clip the mouldings in where the S4's do not. Other than that they are exactly the same. If by "skirts" you mean side skirts, only the S5 Turbo II came with them so...

your going to have to find s5 sideskirts used. the s5 fenders are diff but look the same so no need to replace those.

well i'm doing this conversion currently to make this topic non-imaginary. i'm just curious how well the s4 trim would take to painting, rather than having to find s5 trim.
