Where to buy gloss black fog covers for B8.5?... And a question about the front rings

[spy963]

Anyone knows where I can buy gloss black fog covers for a B8.5?

I also want to replace my chrome rings on my rs4 style grille. Is it difficult to remove those rings from the grille and replace them with black ones? Or should I remove the entire grille to replace them?

Thanks!

Most posts I've seen, at least in the A5/S5 section are just painting the fog covers rather than buying new ones. I think this is the one that is being suggested:

+1 Wurth is fantastic, looks OEM satin black which has only a mild gloss but really looks great.

Try ECS. I got my oem black fog grilles for my old B8.5 S5 from Alex at europrice. You can shoot him a pm.

Ok, you don't think that paint will chip over the years?

Also, should I go with gloss or matte rings?

I'm confused... It looks like you already have the black fog grilles. What am I missing?

As for the Audi rings, I hate the blacked out look in the front. I think the factory rings break it up just enough and picks up off the headlights.

I think he wants the glossy finish on the fog covers. I'm going to spray the silver portion o the fogs black when I get the time, and try to put the Plasti dip's "glossifier" to see if that can create a glossy finish.. or peel it if it looks like completely shit lol.

Those aren't the gloss black ones? What are they? Plasti dipped factory silver fog grilles?

I was just playing around with plasti dip and the glossifier. It comes out pretty good for small things. Might look good on your fogs.

Sorry guys for the confusion lol
Actually I have the oem fog covers + the silver bar wrapped matte black to match.

I'm looking to buy glossy fog covers to match my gloss black rs grille.

Since you already have them wrapped in black, I would leave it as is. Heres the link for the oem ones at over $400. http://europrice.us/bumper-grilles-p...ft-black-optic

Thanks for the link. Like you said, I think I'll pass! +$400 for 2 little pieces of plastic sounds ridiculous.
