Default rs grille on s6

All
Just looking for some advice- my 2016 s6 arrives in 4 weeks and I was wondering if any one could give me some ideas around whether or not you can put an rs grille on the s6?

Thanks

Ken

or MAYBE this one - doesn't work with night vision and they're still hedging about fitment on '16s, tho I don't believe the grill changed in the refresh (?) In other threads folks have reported pretty good results with the better Chinese knockoffs, and I presume ECS picked the good ones. https://www.ecstuning.com/Audi-C7_S6...lle/ES2823045/

You can, but it takes some work.
Here is a link to a how to from when I installed the RS6 grill on my 2016 S6.

Could you provide a link to the grill you actually purchased? I'm VERY tempted to do this to my car (2016 Daytona Grey S6). I see a number of options on eBay in the ~$300 range, so paying 5X this seems extreme...

Make sure the grill you choose has the front camera mount under the audi rings. I couldn't see one on eBay that does.

Its an OEM grill i got from Europrice. It was expensive but it has everything needed to mount the front camera, parking sensors and nv. The ebay ones dont have those mounts.

This one on eBay claims to have all the mounts I'll need (front facing camera and parking sensors), and is a LOT less expensive (~$450 delivered). They will even ship with the S6 badge instead of the RS6 badge.

Update: I ended up going with this grille from ECS, as it was both cheaper and from an domestic merchant (in case I have any issues or need support)
