That looks really smart!! Was it a pain to do or just a case of taking your time?
 
Just be patient and trim a bit at a time. The hardest part was trimming the rear whilst keeping the back mounting points. This is where my dremel came in very handy.

Anyone want to donate me one so I can have a practice before doing mine lol.
 
Straight fit just order the ttrs cover with longer mounting bolts you will get the part number on here or as there's a post on it somewhere then I got grey primer from halfords and satin black both spray cans the Audi badge section unclips aswell so prime it spray it and then click the part back on done fits on perfect I've also got the r8 oil cap to finish it off

Looks awesome mate.
Why have you not used the cold air feed for behind the head light???
 
thx, cos it made horrible darth vader sound + i couldn't c the point of it, now i got it connected to front fog light grill where it gets plenty of cold air, so i got 2 front facing air intakes ;)

ebay,i think shop was called xenonz, there is few people on here who has rs grills from them, i paid about 220 would recommend cos propa audi rs grills go 4 silly money + u need to cut holes for air intake as far as i know, might be wrong :think:
