    adaptive cruise control/ usp motorsports grill ?

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    Ordered a 2016 S5 that will be here next month. It will have the adaptive cruise control.
    I was looking at the USP motorsports RS5 style grill as my first mod. I messaged them but they did not know the answer.
    Does any part of the adaptive cruise control system inhibit your ability to install that grill?

    When I asked they said they would need to see pictures of the front of the car. That would be fine but I do not have the car yet and have not been able to find a picture that would be useable.

    Thanks for any help.

    the ACC is on the fog grilles to my knowledge, don't think it has anything to do with the grille.

    I think only the park distance controller mounts onto the front grille

    Correct, the A5/S5/RS5 have the ACC sensor in the passenger side lower air intake next to the fog light in case of the A5/S5 and the US spec S5 doesn't have front parking sensors, so there are no sensors in the grill at all. The RS5 has 2 front parking sensors at the bottom of the grill.

    Couldn't find a good shot of a facelifted 5, but this should give you an idea. It's gonna be in the same spot on your car, just a different design.

    I am not sure who you spoke to at our company but the members above are correct.

    The sensor is in the fog light covers and has nothing to do with the grille.

    Um well I messaged you and you replied with this "To confirm I would probably need an image of the front of the car to tell."
