Hi All
I have a 97 cab and am looking to tidy a few bits up and subtly mod it a little.

What models does it share parts with, what can i interchange etc, grille seems same as coupe etc

I am looking to put lowered spring/shocks on or possibly coilovers but not many out there for cab, can i use same as coupe etc if so what model S1 etc?

I desperately want to change the front bumper for something smoother but again, can i use a different donor model?! Want something like the one below, mine is quite 'jutty' & 'pointy' in comparison!

I think late Cab's came with the RS2 bumper.

forgive my ignorance (i am ok with vw & bmw speak but an audi beginner!) but what does RS2 refer to?

I know the a4's started in 96/97 so could one be used off that?

It's Audi's first estate 'supercar' they sent the 230hp S2 to Porsche to be breathed on, it came back with 315hp and Porsche wheels/brakes among other things! There aren't many about - only made for 1 or 2 years. But there are/were fibreglass replica's of the bumper available

as far as im aware, the 97 P should be a facelift model the newer ones are a final edition which come with a RS2 style bumper but it is smoother and the indicators wrap around a bit more, its part of the final edition kit! has shown in the above pic of the blue car
