Audi A7 4G8 S-line pre-facelift front bumper
Audi A7 4G8 (C7) Pre-Facelift (2010–2014), the S-Line front bumper is a critical component for owners looking to bridge the gap between the standard SE styling and the full RS7 look.
Core Identification
-
Platform: 4G8 / C7 (Pre-Facelift)
-
OEM Part Number (Base Skin): Frequently listed as
4G8807065or variations thereof. -
Visual Distinction: The S-Line bumper features much more aggressive, angular side intakes compared to the “flat” standard bumper. It also sits slightly lower and has a more pronounced integrated splitter line.
Key Components for a Complete Assembly
When sourcing these for your inventory or a client, a “bare” bumper skin is rarely enough. To ensure the fast, customer-centric service you aim for, check for these specific 4G8 S-Line parts:
| Component | S-Line Specific Detail |
| Main Grille | Often features chrome slats, though many customers swap this for the RS-style honeycomb. |
| Side Air Grilles | These are unique to the S-Line bumper. Standard A7 side grilles will not fit the S-Line skin. |
| ACC Radar Covers | If the car has Adaptive Cruise Control, you need the specific S-Line “eye” covers. |
| Fog Light Brackets | The S-Line uses different mounting depths for the fog lights compared to the SE model. |
| Headlight Washers | Ensure the caps match the S-Line contour; they are not interchangeable with standard caps. |
Conversion Compatibility
-
Standard A7 to S-Line: This is a direct “bolt-on” conversion for the 4G8 pre-facelift. The mounting points on the fenders and the crash bar are identical.
-
Facelift (2015+) Compatibility: Do not mix pre-facelift and facelift parts. The 2015+ “C7.5” models have different headlight shapes (tapered towards the grille), meaning a facelift bumper will leave a significant gap if paired with pre-facelift headlights.
Logistical Tip for the 4G8 Market
The pre-facelift A7 market is currently seeing a high volume of RS7-style upgrades (aftermarket PP kits). If you are sourcing OEM S-Line bumpers, your best selling point is the perfect fitment of sensor brackets. Aftermarket kits often struggle with PDC (Parking Sensor) alignment, so emphasizing that your OEM S-Line stock includes factory-seated clips can be a major advantage for your business.
