RS4 Grille arrived - A4 S-Line B8.5

[KudoWarrior]

Hey guys,

After the shambles from Precision upgrades (found here: http://www.audi-sport.net/xf/threads/discount-on-rs4-look-honeycomb-grill.231452/page-7) I decided to buy it off of ebay: http://www.ebay.de/itm/331620608575

Will be using this guide to fit it this afternoon: http://www.audi-sport.net/xf/thread...rs4-grille-fitment-step-by-step-guide.209727/

I suppose my question is, will I run into any issues with:

- Using the above guide for an s-line facelift?
- The front parking sensors not fitting in properly even thought this grill has the slots?
- Any other sensors at the front?
- Fitting my small quattro badge?

I'll also be spraying the front radiator black so it wont stand out.

Thanks guys!

The small Quattro badge won't fit unless you modify to make it fit bud.

Follow the guide and take your time and you will be fine. First time I did it I took 3 hours being really cautious.

Second time I did It to remove it, took me about an hour.

Thanks matey. Was your grille abs plastic or something else?

See my extra comments/photos on page 2 of that guide regarding the B8.5, there seems to be an additional bracket that clamps the lower edge of the front wing to the upper edge of the bumper compared to the B8.
Not hard though, I swapped to my black edition grille in a couple of hours.

Thanks mate. Really did help as I couldn't for the life of me figure out why the bumper wouldn't come off until I saw what you wrote. I could see an extra bolt but wasn't sure it was the one to remove.

Cheers bud.

After doing it myself I feel confident in doing it again if I wanted to.
