Default 4.2 Euro Pumpers

I did a search, and came up with limited info.

I am trying to replace my bumper covers with Euro "stubby" covers. I understand I can screw in my bumper shocks and just need the covers (is this correct?).

Where is a good place (reasonable prices) to get these covers. I am not trying to convert to RS6 covers, just the stubby euro ones.

Thanks for your help in advance.

Ebay Germany is one option, however shipping might be expensive..

however to install euro bumpers you need new shocks for front and rear,
it is expensive upgrade,

I thought you could "screw in" the bumper shocks and collapse them in to get the right fit?!

Any high performance audi speciallist in US selling the Euro bumpers?

I have upgraded to euro bumper, first when i did research someone mention that you can screw in well it didn't work for me, rear and front were turning but were not screw in type, so at the end I had fish for those shocks, end up total cost for everything was close to $2000 usd, that included shipping from Germany bumpers, painting, plus shocks all 4 , the shipping was the expenive part for bumpers 200 euro per bumper, and they had to use Forwarding company as no one wanted to ship through Regular post system.

check with these guys, they might help you get you parts
