Default Rs4 Bumper shocks. Difference?
Im fitting the bumper on the car with rs4 fenders. Ive spaced out the bumper support to 6.5mm ( ~1/4in ) out. It seems that the fitment needs even more to align its self perfectly with the headlights, and fenders.

can anyone here give me a difference in dimensions?

I doubt that. A4 shocks work with the S4 bumper. But I believe they will still be short for the RS4.
