S4 & S5 Bumper Question.

So I saw that all of Shine Auto's bumpers are only for S5's. I wanted to know if there was anyway to put those bumpers on an S4? Would it just bolt on, easily? Or would there be some serious work involved?

Thanks.

They will bolt on but will not match the S4 body moulding.

Oh, but the moldings on the 10th AE S4 are different from the rest of the S4's. Would the 10th AE mouldings match up with the S5 front bumper?

They are the same mouldings as any other S4 but the 10AE's were white to match the car. S5 moldings are different.

ahaha yeh, sum ppl that arnt familiar wid fcs mistake 10th aes wid s5s. the center grooving is more on the bottom for s5s and its right in the middle of the s4. if u get a s5 front bumper, u should get s5 fenders because if u use the s4 fenders, they will look slightly off. dont get me wrong though, u can still do it.

Shine S5 bumper on my S4 ....

It fits, but as mentioned the trim strips don't work.

this is mine:


I replaced the front fender moulding and the rear fender, but the body moulding still needs to be done.
