Looking for advice on RS style grill for B9 SQ5. I've completed contact forms for both Carbnlabs and Nemesis and sent some PMs, but no responses as of yet. (Please, someone take my money!)

I'm looking for alu optics, black mesh, chrome Audi rings, grey (preferred) or black quattro letting, and camera support.

1/ Do any of the sellers have this style in stock?

2/ Are the grills available through Carbnlabs and Nemsis the same? I seem to recall this being the case.

3/ Are those grills the same as available via German Car Accessories? (Free shipping and somewhat lower price point is attractive).

4/ Has anyone done something wild and had the mesh painted gunmetal or similar like the RS' of yore? I did this on my former monsoon grey B8 S4 and liked it. That's where I'm likely headed with my florett silver SQ5...

I've not seen anything from you man... I'm sorry about that. I'm pretty good to respond right away 7 days per week. No matter, glad you posted up.

- Not in stock, and the current lead time is 9-10 weeks. Not ideal, but it's been that way for close to a year now.
- Yep, Carbnlab provides Nemesis with their grilles.
- They are not. Carbnlab uses the same supplier as Lltek. 100% ABS and autobody grade clear. There is no better unit, and Lltek sells them for $699 plus shipping. We do $650 shipped. Most of the cheaper RS grilles are made from a mix of recycled plastics and have low grade to no clear at all.

The B9 Q/SQ5 grilles we sell are pretty much impossible to take apart, just in case you're thinking it will be easy to seperate the mesh from frame.

Hope that helps!

Wow! The timing of this post is incredible and wished I would have asked similar questions about 24hrs ago. Thanks for creating the post, @ckamps. Overall, really glad I went with the Carbnlabs grille as opposed to other manufacturers but sounds like I could have saved myself a few extra dollars going through Nemesis. I just didn’t see them on your website as being available/back ordered. Oh well, I’ll be hitting up someone at Nemesis soon as I still need/want the ABT H.A.S and possibly some wheel spacers

Sounds like a plan! We provide many more parts than what’s listed on our site. Have a look at Brands We Offer on the site sometime. But yeah, HAS and spacers are no problemo

Is there a link I can click to order a grill as well? It seems like everything is back ordered.

Any idea if a newer style (3d printed) camera mount is available anywhere on the market yet. The one i got was far from correct ended up using oem mount for now.

Not interested in a grille, but will certainly vouch for the communication with mops! That’s the way customer service is done!

[Hostile]

Yup, Mops is very quick to respond!
