man its soo hard lol still cant decide

[RedS-line]

unfortunately, the all black look seems a little too dull for me since the filler plate is matte black and not glossy black. it looks like it is waiting to be painted. now if they only came out with a glossy black a4 filler plate as seen on the a5 or new tt.......

Its actually called Satin Black which is slightly different than matte black.
It really wouldnt cost much to have your stock filler painted glossy.
Personally I think glossy cheapens the look. The satin is subtle and classy.

Here is one painted body color.

Know the OEM part number? Like ECS "blackout" grill aka DTM is $249 from ECS.... but you can use OEM part number and get the same thing for $171

I did some looking and found this comes up for S4

Center grille - W/rs4 & w/25th anniversary - W/rs4 & w/25th anniversary
Front bumper and grille - grille and components - Center grille

MSRP is $278 but you can get it for $192 but I'm not sure without a OEM part number if it's the one you want.

From what I was told it was only available on certain European s4's.
Instead of being gray with chrome trim it is all black.
I dont know where I could find this part number. I know if I call my dealer they are going to ask for a VIN number of a car that came with that grille.

Anyone with ETKA wanna help out?

[4RingRook]

blacked out RS4 would look great on ibis.

[praudi]

on white i was thinking white trim ,filler shinny black and rs4 mesh

[praudi]

[dope a4]

Now that sir is a nice grill

Do you have some other angles? Maybe from a little bit further back...

[MOFSTEEL]

It's Redhott06's car.
I'm sure she wont mind me whoring it out.

[dope a4]

bak on topic plz lol GIVE ME MORE OPTIONS!!!!!!!!! LOL

[Prism]

I think the body colored filler plate with the body colored grille trim looks best!!!

[ekaufman]

Will the brushed aluminum trim on the RS4 grille match the chrome window outline? Obviously, if you have the titanium pkg, it doesnt matter, but I still have the chrome window trim and Im worried if I put the RS4 grille on there, it wont match up.

I know this is straying from dopeA4's original post, but along the same lines, so I thought Id ask.

[A4addict]

Black out the S-line grille.

no the rs4 trim is more of brushed metal like .... so it will not match the chrome window outline

Hands down... Blackedout Sline Grill.
No Chrome.

i like that a4 on the left

the one on the left is what my final goal is for my car.
Minus the HID's and RIMS.
Rims are too pricey to maintain.

[aaron1085]

RS4 anything is the choice!!!

[quattro.it]

I'd leave it stock or swap out with Titanium pkg grille. Ti pkg on Ibis looks sweet. I'm not into switching to a different model grille because to me it just says "RS4 wannabe". But that's just me.
