C5 came to North American shores in 1998, but only with the 2.8 engine, which isn't a lot of fun.
The 2.7T and 4.2 engines came about in 2000, with a 'face lift' following two years later in 2002.

Updated tail lights and exhaust which exits through the rear bumper (instead of being hidden behind the rear bumper) are the only real changes.

For the C5 A6 2002 - 2004 facelift, 2.8L replaced with a 3.0L, front bumper skin and front hood grill opening also changed.

Are you able to put the 02 front end on the 00?

Also the widebody sheet metal used in the 2000-2001 4.2 became standard across the range in the 02 facelift AFAIK

Our post facelift '02 C5 A6 is not a 4.2 and it is not a widebody... wish it was because widebody looks awesome!

Also pre facelift rear tail lights are all red, post facelift have orange in the turn signal area of the lense and both have white lense for reverse bulbs.

AFAIK only the glorious C5 4.2's received the widebody sheetmetal... jealous and love the look!
