New Grille - what do you think? - Pictures -

[TH85]

Hey all...

so this is my first time posting pictures of the ride....

i stole this idea from audizine user: eMacPaul ....i really liked how his turned out so i tried to do the same thing....

i like it as it looks like the S8 and S5 grills, which i think look great....and it only cost $15!!!!

let me know what you guys think...

it is the b7 sline grille but i put chrome on the vertical bars (or whatever you call them)

Damn I usually dislike chrome but that looks sick! Nice work. I would consider that but I don't know if it would look good on Brilliant Red. Black pulls it off nicely.

i agree i dont think it would look good on your car because it looks like you have the blacked out trim???

im planning on getting RS4 hyper silver reps so i think those will go nicely with the chrome look..

[CBRmatt600]

Yeah I black it all out with vinyl so I could easily remove it and the chrome would be there.

[pw211]

Matt if you blacked out the grey and kept the chrome on the grill, it would look SICK. The grey is what would make it look bad on our cars. I definitely say try it! [up]

[TH85]

the stuff is only $15 bucks at autozone so its worth a try...
pretty easy to install...this is the same stuff that people use to "chrome" out their wheel wells, door frames, brake lights....

[jacx920]

nice bro, great look.

[FreshtoJEFF]

Looks pretty damn good the black definitely compliments it just right might have to try this!

[Blarg]

I think it looks really good!

[Msu2312]

not really my taste but it does look good

[bmc333]

I'm going to give it a shot - looks good on darker colors only tho.

[quattrosaint]

that came out great! I really like it.

[tgt]

I like it. Nice Work! [up]

[Quattro]

not too bad

[FLYINGLEGGS]

If you would have told me that you were doing this I would have said you were crazy...but this looks sweet. Very clean. [up]

[Mordaine]

wow, looks really good, you should clear corner your lights, i think it will look 10x better then.

when i saw your car with the chrome...i knew i had to do something like it!

[philaboy]

Not bad, can someone do a Non-Sline one and post picz?

[Spongebob05]

It flows really good....I like it.

[eMacPaul]

Trouble is non-sline you'd probably have to do the horizontal slats... and that might end up looking like a Ford Focus. [:p]

[Koby]

I agree not something I normally like but it came out really good on your car. Maybe because you have a black car? Black and chrome are a classic combo.

[philaboy]

Yeah! thatz what I was thinking, but still would lov to see pics anyhow[;)]

[Richardesty]

I have a similar set up - but it looks like I've used much thinner chrome trim.......

I do like the bold look of yours though [cool]

[TH85]

yep i used the 1/4 inch 3m chrome tape and it fit pretty good.

[casuso]

Wow, looks good. It has to be special to receive a lot of compliments to your work in a forum where chrome is almost like the antichrist!

[TH85]

by the way...
here is where i bought the chrome tape from...Autozone had it in store...

Looks pretty good, but I think it would look better with thinner chrome, with the double thin chrome being the end all. redlabel81's looks stunning, makes me want to get an S4 grill, but I'm not even S-line and don't wanna chop my shit up...

[Hockenheim]

looks great

Looks great - nice choice for your car.

Good pics too... did you plan to have reflections of the buildings compliment your new grill? Nice touch.

[boosted4life]

Looks pretty sweet. Might look even better if you plasti-dipped all the black parts.

thanks dude...haha not at all but i just noticed how the buildings do go with the grille....i just cruised around for a bit and saw that spot to take pics randomly.

[SEXICÄN]

Ewww crome!!!

[AudiTFSI3o3]

you should do this to a honeycomb RS4 grille [:D][:D][:D][:D][:D][:D]

No one has tryed this to a non-S-line? Back to top[>_<]

Dude, it's less than 20 bucks... just do it! If you don't like it, you can take it off.

[Capt. Obvious]

Normally I don't like this kind of thing, but you took your time and did it right, and it looks great. [up]

[philaboy]

I did not know if it would leave adhesive residue on my grill- Just wanted to see a few pics before I waste my time. Somebody has to have one pic, I did multiple searches on the topic. But If I have sometime on my hands in the next week or so I will do it and post picz[:D]

It might leave some. It's 3M automotive tape with chrome over it. But you'd be safe to use Goo Gone/Goof Off/whatever to clean it off.

[philaboy]

Someone with One Ring should test it out[:D][:D][:D] 4 me.....and take pics[rolleyes]

[eskimopunk]

Try making the rest of the grill black so it contrasts better with the chrome.

And I think thinner strips would work better.

[philaboy]

[up]hmmmm i might just need to get a test grill- very good input

[4ty-phive]

not a fan, but unique

[Rotond0000]

ive been really on the fence with this style grille however i think all of the pictures in this thread have me liking the look a whole lot more!

[philaboy]

Been trying to figure out what I would like to do with my non-sline front. I just don’t want it looking like I’m a rapper riding DUBz with a Iced out grill on my audi. Just want a clean oem look for my car. I’m not really a fan of chrome, but I saw a few Avants with really clean grills. Of course they seem to be all Sline.

[TH85]

a few more pictures with better sunlight...i say if you think you want to do it...do it! only $15 at Autozone, easy to install and if it doesnt work take it off...there should not be any damage to the grille itself.

All my buddies like the look...im like everyone about the view of chrome...but i think this looks great and complements the front end of the car. Once i get VMR wheels i think it will look great.

[srsly]

+1 on the RS4 but it still looks nice

[s-man]

listen, i parked my car just the other day and realized i'm missing one of the fog light covers on my, car. I think startin a new thread is ridiculous so what is the proper name for it, so I can find another to replace it. thanx

You would get quicker results with a quick search or new thread
