Couple of more real-life ultra sport shots...
I think its badass. I've already tried to order a ultrasport front bumper from overseas, but apparently the dealers are not releasing them yet to aftermarket vendors.

id say thats an understatment... you can hardly claim they are different...
as well that back bumper is essentially the same as the stock one from the a6 and tt, and doesn't the a6 have those side wings ?

just some minor things...
i don't believe the lower door moldings/flares are different btw the S4 and A4 ultrasport... i've checked a few pics of the 2 and they just seem to be the same...
an other consideration and this is somewhat minor, but something that is important to me as i'm looking at "upgrading" my bumpers, the ultasport bumpers are 2 pieces while the S4 are just one... now i guess a body shop could "buffer" them out so that the separation btw the 2 pieces on the ultrasport doesn't show... and that would probably be far less expensive than getting a S4...
in addition to that the ultrasport front grilles are of a different pattern, the side ones are "diamond" shaped while the center one are "square" shaped... again maybe some aftermarket grilles will become available in the future, or maybe the S4 grilles would fit...
now all of that probably doesn't justify spending so much more for the S4 just based on these...

You are a moron. period.
I don't have to claim they are different, they are different.
S4 has a different styled front bumper not to mention its one piece
S4 also has a different styled rear bumper not to mention its one piece
S4 has side wings
A4 - unpainted lowers (until november when '04's start shipping with painted lowers) & 2 piece bumpers. Stop trying to justify your non-purchase of a S4.

Until you've driven one, you can't speak intelligently on how "different" the S4 is...
you can set up your car to look similar to an S4 but it will NEVER drive and feel like an S4. And for those that have driven the S4, you know what I'm talking about.
