    Blackout Grill for B8? (assuming B7 doesnt fit B8)

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    I was just wondering if anyone is aware of a blackout grill (or RS4 blackout) for the B8 A4. I've looked at all of the major retailers with no results just yet.

    I was thinking of maybe doing it myself if there are no plans for one in the near future, as I was able to do it pretty successfully on my ex Subie FXT
    (even after being hit at 40mph the 4 coats of black and 2 coats of clear were perfect on the grill)

    this is my plan so far for my B8 since stupid NY requires a front plate.

    (sorry for stealing your pic skidplate!) :D

    When you offset the plate like that it draws even more attention to itself. Leave it in the middle.

    I'd consider the hideaway plate option that retracts under the car before I did that offset look. I'm glad FL doesn't have the front plate.

    Actually the more i see that hideaway plate the more i think its a really cool idea for showing off the car at a meet or something.

    I think its stupid the people that want to try to use it for illegal purposes...
