Default Matte Black Grill OEM Option for 2013 S7 with Pics!

This is a 2013 OEM option for the 2013 S7... Matt Black Grill and diffuser fins with matte Window Trim.

The polished 5 spoke stars look exceptionally cool (however this is not an option - full polish- would need to be done custom)

Thoughts?

Too much research. Deciding how to trick out my ride!

I paid 75 g. I'm going to spend more to optimize the starship. Need to get it right!

Tracking down local la based shops via chats with vossen etc.

I think i know the look now.

I'll post pics of V1 next week.

How do you get the polished wheels? Much better looking than painted.

Yes. They are awesome. I'll have mine by weeks end. There are custom shops that specialize in it. The polishing looks just as shiny as chrome. Yet retains the pure metal essence.

I'll have more on this with pics next week

Hey guys, I own a 2012 A6 but I browse the A7 option because I love the A7 as much as I love my A6 .

Instead of paying big bucks $$ to get a matte black grill, just PLASTIDIP your current stock grille, you will achieve the same look for $6.50. No I don't work for the company but I just love this product. I used it on my old BMW have it on my current Acura and Audi!

I just did the chrome edge of the grill but you can do the whole grill!

This stuff is very safe on the paint if you get overspray it peels off because its a rubberized coating. Its big with the A4/A5 crowd.

Some pictures.

You can use this on the window trim as well, I used it on my old BMW.

Hope this helps!

I may just do that - Thx! How well does it hold up to road wear - Are you constantly having to retouch it because of rocks, bugs, and the like?
