Default Black out chrome
I have purchased this tape to black out all the chrome on my A6. I have used this on MB and A8 previously, and had a great success.
I will post as soon as I do some mod.<ul><li><a href="http://autopartsway.amazonwebstore.com/Trimbrite-T9005-BlackOut-Tape/M/B00029XD62.htm">http://autopartsway.amazonwebstore.com/Trimbrite-T9005-BlackOut-Tape/M/B00029XD62.htm</a</li></ul>

Default also would like to hear your result, I did this on my C4 Audi - looked great
from 10 feet but close up was not clean- likely operator error

I would think as soon as you touch it, it will feel very cheap.

Default Any recommendation for the chrome on the lower grill?
I am looking for something to black-out the chrome on the lower grill once I replace the upper.

Default I think it would look and hold up better if you paint it.I did my trim....
with high hewat engine paint a brushed aluminum and it came out great. It looks like that was the way it came. If you live in the long island area I can help.

I like the chrome on my A6, gives it a classy look, and not too much, like some luxury cars

Did a quick search, no luck. Does anyone make mirrors that are the same black chrome as the trim?
