    Does anyone know by chance how much modification would be needed to fit these in a s-line bumper?

    Anyone here have them installed themselves? (s-line hopefully)

    Bit of digging and looking like this may be the best way to go. Can copy paste the image links in browser.

    I just did this 2 weeks ago.
    I wouldnt recommend buying the RS4 fog light grilles. Theres not enough mesh to cover the hole, I cut one up and didnt match up so well and i wasnt pleased.
    So then I bought a cheap mesh grille from Ebay and cut that up and used that mesh.
    100 times easier because you have room for error. On the RS4 grilles you mess up and your really hurting.
    I was thinking of doing kind of a DIY for this but didnt think too many people would be interested.

    I bought the mesh grille local for $100 bucks i'll have pic's in a sec

    Looks like this one, I'm sure any grille with the same style mesh would work fine

    Is there a way to make your own RS4 main center grill?

    wow, great work Ax-Rings.

    I did a similar route, no where near as nice as yours... but it was totally free, so I'm not complaining too much. I grabbed some metal mesh from work and just painted it black. I'll have to give your DIY a go, I'm digging that OEM look

    I'm going to give these a shot. Hope they turn out OK as far as matching grill pattern size.

    Awesome find! Let us know how that works.
    Also when I finished it all I threw a coat of black Plasti dip to get that flat finish same as the center grille

    I'm planning on doing this depending on how comfortable I become "cutting/pasting" with these fog grilles.

    I think it gives it a nice aggressive look.

    If so, very easy, just need a dremel

    Thanks. They look very close in color temp to my 5000k morimotos. Was running yellow; sick of those since everyone and their mother runs them on their Nissan Altimas or whatever here.

    Switched back to Hoen, but they look almost greenish next to my headlights. I may just try these. Wonder if they make 5000k? You just never know what will match when you pair different manufacturers. :/

    Np man. I hear you. They dont match the xenons right on, but they're close. I think 4000k will match perfectly. Then again, I use the fogs only as my drl. I never intended to match them

    Hope it works out for ya buddy. Tbh not Sure if sonic tuning makes them anymore. Wildcat said he couldnt find em
