It's confirmed, you need the new upper bumper also for the Ultrasport. The stock A4 bumper is too short and the spoiler won't snap on to it. The frame that's behind the gray lowers is totally different than the Ultrasport. You may be able to cut the frame off but then there would be no support at all for the spoiler. It's hard to explain so if you have any questions please ask. Here's a few pics.....

The Ultrasport spoiler hangs about 2 inches lower than the frame on the stock bumper.

This one you can see how much lower the Ultrasport is.

Having been there myself, it sucks to be "the guy who figured out that XYZ part didn't fit".

Now the challenge will be figuring out how you might be able to make it fit using the SMOF technique ...Small Matter of Fabrication

kraeburn

ouch, this is going to be one expensive front spoiler for you

Actaully it was a freebie. Vagparts sent it to me n/c all I had to pay was shipping. Martyn wanted to know if it would work so I was the guinie pig. So even though I have to buy the upper now I'm still ahead of the game. Just a case of the right place at the right time I guess. :-)
