pro's and cons
Reiger: Not exactly as smooth as RS4 OEM. But easier to fit on the car, is plastic, and will cost you less than half the price painted and installed on your car (bumper is like 450-500)... even with the washer cutouts.
OEM RS4: Looks great and it's an oem piece. But get ready to pay 1200 bucks for the bumper and all the associated pieces. And good luck finding a bodyshop that will want to mold the bumper nicely and perfectly onto your car as it's made for wider fenders than your car. Time and materials after that. And even if you found a bodyshop willing, no guarantee on how it will come out. Some will be WOW... experienced body shop. Others will be very bad installs.

maybe a little, but the rs4 ic's are bigger and are pretty much right behind the gap there anyway, i
know that ben and fritz's sportec cars arent using any shrouds.
either way, just an option.
