I have a front grille off my old 06 A3 2.0T, comes with the chrome trim and chrome rings. In great condition, I will have to take pics later. I replaced this grille with the OEM Titanium Package grille when I had the car.

I can plasti-dip this all solid black if someone would like a blacked out OEM grille and doesn't have the downtime, would need payment upfront however. License plate strip or delete panel does not come included. Just the grille, trim, and Audi rings.

Asking $100 picked up locally. Not looking for trades or low ball offers, so don't waste my time. Feel free to ask around, I sell numerous parts in the PNW area and have a good reputation. Please email me at: [email protected]

Cash or PayPal only. Thank you.

just out of curiosity, how much do you charge to black-out a grill? i'm mechanically-inclined, but i'm also accident-prone. haha!

according to this guy, you don't have to take off the bumper. http://www.audizine.com/forum/showthread.php/199518-8P-A3-Grille-removal-without-removing-the-bumper

Well yes according to that guy you don't have to... but if you are picky like me and pay attention to detail and quality work and rather get the job done without scratching anything or breaking any clips or tabs you do need to remove the bumper.... honestly, I've done it both ways, I prefer to just remove the bumper, its easier and cleaner.

If you want me to blackout your grill for you, I'd charge at least $100... it's time consuming, have to remove bumper, remove grille, paint, I'd do about 3 coats, let dry, install.... done. I bought my blacked out grille (OEM Titanium grille) for about $320 back in the day shipped new... I think you can get them cheaper than that now however. Where are you located? You are located in CA so that doesn't really do you any good to ship your grille up here, not very cost effective.

I usually charge $70/hr for mechanical work on the side... this isn't mechanical work however.... better off asking a local paint shop in your area or I can mail you this one painted, you can have someone install it down there then sell yours? Just throwing out some options lol

Wait.... just noticed you are up in the PNW from your other thread I replied to in. Where are you located? I could possibly lend you a hand if I get some free time.
