I've not done this but you need a new front bumper and grill.

 

Hi Max,
You'll probably want the side skirts as well, otherwise the TTS bumper will sit lower to the ground than your standard side skirts (in human terms, you know when old people's bottom jaw keeps dropping - that sort of look. not a good look

:wink: Cheers, Mark

Ahhhh yes i didnt think of that.
This could be very expensive for me.......

 

sell the car and get a new one - lots of deals atm, TT sales are really struggling.

I only bought it on Friday :lol:

 

how about some lowering springs to get a good stance and a chin spoiler then. Alot cheaper!

Chin chin spoiler do you have in mind..?

Loads of options.... Have a look here http://www.thettshop.com/exterior.asp?cat=5003

OEM or aftermarket kits are available. Again the side skirt issue can kick in. I like the TID

 

Don't think you need a new bumper to change the grille at all - even if yow u want to fit the TTRS grille, you only have to cut a plastic piece out of the standard bumper...

Could you elaborate on this mate?

 

Judging by your diagram where you've circled the lower half including fog light surrounds rather than just the grille I'd say you mean bumper and can disregard that post on two counts:

1) Your picture doesn't show a TT-RS grille anyway.
2) If you want to change the fog surrounds too then you do need a new bumper.

For that bumper though I think I'm right in saying that the central grille will still fit so you only need the bumper and fog surrounds, not the centre grille. It's worth noting above comments on chin height though.

 

The post's title clearly refers to a grille change only. All grilles are the same size, and all bumpers can be modified if required to take any grille, whether it's off an s- line, ttrs or anything else. You may not even have to modify your bumper at all to fit the grille you want. Do a search for ttrs grille and you can read all about it!

 

Yeah I know, and you were right, and he refers to the grille in the title but unless he's got the World's Most Piss-Poor Hand-Eye Co-ordination his drawing clearly doesn't mean the grille. Maybe he does. Where is Rembrandt anyway? :lol:

You are correcto!
I am indeed The World's Most Piss-Poor Hand-Eye Co-ordination'ist

Its the lower part of the front of the car I meant (bottom spoiler, fog grills/surrounds etc.

Sorry

 

You need a new bumper to make it look like the white one.
ie what was the TTS look, but is not the sline look.

Haha You wouldnt think I got an A in A-Level Art & Design

 

Anyone have any idea how much the bumper conversion will set me back?
Looking at it, it looks like its in a few parts...

 

The TT Shop is expensive but prices should be comparable to dealers. The TTS (as was) bumper is £473 unpainted. See here:
http://www.thettshop.co.uk/exterior.asp ... talog=6115

 

So looks like:

£473.18 - Audi Mk2 TTS Front Bumper
£74.72 - Audi Mk2 TTS Spoiler front strip

Unpainted.....

They the only parts i will need?

If you want a full TTS/SLine conversion (like the red car in the picture) there are actually 8 parts to the whole job (I did it myself on my old V6)
1. Bumper
2. Main Grill
3. Spoiler
4. Left fog light grill
5. Left blanking plate (behind the fog grill)
6. Right fog light grill
7. Right blanking plate
8. Lower trim (underneath main grill)
All parts supplied, painted and fitted by Audi came to about a grand IIRC

Thanks Bryn.

I can live with a grand as long as this includes all parts required, painted, assembled and installed so its the complete job.
If that is the case I might aswell get the side skirts thrown in aswell.....

No worries, it's a worthwhile conversion and if I were you I'd definitely have the side skirts done as well - couple of hundred quid more but makes all the difference.

 

Just found this pic of all the bits from my car when I sold them - shows all the parts fairly clearly
