Audi RS5 Front Bumper Conversion | View Our 3 Variants & Key Differences

Canadian Auto Performance is proud to have the highest selection of RS5 style bumper versions in the world for the B9 Audi A5/S5. The B9 A5/S5 platform is one of the most popular platforms to modify in the Audi world, and we wanted to make sure to provide different variants of RS5 style bumpers for different people.

Although all three versions of our RS5 style bumpers for the B9 A5/S5 all have the same beautiful aggressiveness that RS5’s are known for, they all share key differences which allow every B9 A5/S5 owner to be unique in their own way.

Please note these bumpers are made to fit 2018-2019 B9 Audi A5/S5, we have not tried fitment on real B9 RS5’s.

2018-2019 B9 Audi A5/S5 Cap Front Bumper | Audi RS5 Bumper - V1

Audi RS5 Bumper v1 CAP

The CAP B9 RS5 Bumper V1 for the B9 A5/S5 is our first version of the RS5 bumper. With this bumper, you will transform your car’s front end to look like a real RS5. The unique thing about this bumper is that it utilizes a grille size of an actual B9 A5/S5 grille, so theoretically, if you wanted, you can reuse your OEM B9 A5/S5 grille with this bumper.

The B9 RS5 Bumper V1 also has an optional 3 piece gloss black front lip that is available to purchase on the product page for a very affordable price, which gives the bumper an additional aggressive stance and makes the vehicle to appear lower than it actually is.

With the V1 bumper, you have the option to get lower honeycomb fog grilles that are all honeycomb, or have a hole for ACC (adaptive cruise control). Even if you do not have ACC, you have the option to get the ACC lower fog grilles and use our fake ACC sensors to make it look like you have ACC.

Overall, the B9 RS5 Bumper V1 is a great choice for B9 A5/S5 owners that want to give their front end a facelift while not breaking the bank.

The CAP B9 RS5 Bumper V2 for the B9 A5/S5 is the second version of the RS5 bumper. Although very similar to our B9 RS5 Bumper V1, the key difference with this bumper is that it utilizes a special RS5 grille. The RS5 grille the V2 bumper uses is the actual size of a real RS5 grille, so it has an even more aggressive stance due to the bigger size of the grille.

This means that OEM grilles or regular RS5 grilles that fit the OEM bumper will not work with this bumper - you must use the special grille we sell with the V2 bumper.

The other difference that sets the B9 RS5 Bumper V2 apart from the V1 is that the V2 bumper has a beautiful carbon fiber front lip available for the bumper, which really makes the front end look very special, especially if you have other carbon fiber parts on your car.

With the V2 bumper, you have the option to get lower honeycomb fog grilles that are all honeycomb, or have a hole for ACC (adaptive cruise control). Even if you do not have ACC, you have the option to get the ACC lower fog grilles and use our fake ACC sensors to make it look like you have ACC.

Audi RS5 Front Bumper v3 for a5 s5 b9

The CAP B9 RS5 Bumper V3 for the B9 A5/S5 is the third version of the RS5 bumper. This, released in 2023, is truly a special bumper available here at CAP. This will not only make your B9 A5/S5 look like a real RS5, it actually facelifts your car - it makes it look like a 2024 B9.5 RS5!

By the pictures of this bumper, especially installed, you can see that the bumper looks quite different from the V1 & V2 we have. The facelift B9.5 style looks absolutely insane - it’s a great way to make your B9 A5/S5 look much newer but also look much more aggressive than the OEM look.

No need to change the headlights or anything when purchasing this bumper - this bumper will fit OEM headlights! And it is compatible with ACC (adaptive cruise control) as well, as we supply the ACC brackets for it.

The B9 RS5 Bumper V3 (B9.5 Style) also has a gorgeous gloss black front lip available for purchase with the bumper at the same time or separately in the future. This is definitely the bumper for guys and gals that want to have a very unique look. You are sure to confuse lots of even the most dedicated Audi enthusiasts when they see your car with this bumper - B9 headlights but a B9.5 RS5 bumper - it’s a very unique look indeed!

This bumper, of course, also comes with its unique B9.5 style RS5 grille - so no other grille will fit this bumper other than the one we provide with a purchase of the bumper.

With the V3 bumper, all lower honeycomb fog grilles will have a hole for ACC, so if your car does not have ACC, you can use the fake ACC sensors we supply with the bumper, to make it look like your car has ACC.
