Default A7 front plate filler

What's up everyone.......new to the forum. Just picked up a 2012 premium plus/sport package A7. Wanting to buy the plate filler even though it's an arm and a leg for what it is. Does anyone know if the grill is the same on the non s-line bumper compared to the s-line bumper. The reason I ask is because the car pictured on this page is the S-line model and it doesn't state anything about the filler working with either or or both.

Should be the same. I ordered this part from them and called first they were very helpful and said that part fits on all the A7 but I would call first. Part came very fast and was an easy install.

Is the OEM version expensive if you buy from the dealer and have them install?

I am sure it would be more expensive. I believe that when I priced it out it was over $500.00. FYI, the part from Europarts is a genuine OEM Audi part.

I'm hardly lazy, in fact I like doing mods to my own car, did many of the mods on my old BMW E90 M3. But from reading about the install on audizine, it sounds like some of the clips may be pretty fragile, and some guys recommend taking it to the dealer to install. Can't imagine it being too pricey, I think I'll just opt that route. Better safe than sorry.
