New Kamei Grill pix for those who wanted to see results
I just thought Id make a seperate post for those who wanted to see the Kamei GRill that I bought
from ebay. My whole thought on the installation was that ... it wasnt as "smooth" as I thought. The grill fits but I had to drill wholes to make it fit the wholes provided on the grill (does that make sense).
Anyways it took me 3 hours + I was also doing an smoked tail light overlay kit (took about 1 hour to do)
THE PROCESS:
FINISHED PRODUCT:
Oh and I was gonna get a new euro plate in the front and remove the bottom center grill to show off my "soon to buy" intercooler (thinking about tcarbon). I was also gonna get the smallold versionaudi badge (not the four rings) and put it on the center of the hood (what do you guys think?) Just coming up with ideas so STOP ME NOW before it happens if you think its too ricer.

wow it didnt look so bad on my parents monitor but viewing it through my labtop SUCKS!! i cant see anything. But ill try to take more pix of it. Overall IM VERY SATISFIED ...
and yes as for "easy install"
BULLL ..... (****)
but i was very very satsfied with goingfast.com's service (who also sells on ebay), if you dont want to drill holes on your bumper dont
get this one though. its not really "custom fitted"

I bought a badgless sport grill on ebay. Took a sawzall and cut out the old grill poped in the new one. Install time 30 minutes, great fit and did not have to remove the bumper cover.

I got the Badgless Sport Grill. I is about the same as stock without the four rings in the center. It snaped in easily and fits perfect. Now I am I am repairing the cover for the license plate, where the previous owner drilled holes for the front plate. The Audi dealer wanted $400 to repair and repaint, so I got a kit to repair bumpers and matching paint and clear coat. Hope it works.
