Has anyone found a reasonably priced alternative to buying the Audi OEM part 8W6807287BRP5 (twilight matte)?

I have seen new oem prices for this seemingly basic and relatively small part range from $150 up to $200+.

I'm inclined to see if the part could be 3D printed and painted.

If anyone has a used one in good shape, I'm interested.

It's a bummer to see the simpler B9 A4 part go for < $30 new on eBay.

you could buy a whole front grill from ebay for around that price that doesn't have a front plate and sell yours for around the same.

You can get them much cheaper here:

I ordered my front plate filler from them, and paid about $120 shipped. Far cheaper than any other dealer.

Also, Audiusaparts is just a front end for Sunset imports, which is huge in the Porsche community. I've purchased many things from them for my 911

Uhh I got mine from the dealer for like $100 or something around there... 18' S5 Sportback.

Can you share the name of the dealer?

That site lists the part at $154 shipping included. I'll call them to see if they can provide a better deal.

Was your part for an A5 or S5? I'd like to know if we're making apples-to-apples comparison given that the parts are different.

Don't quote me one the $100 price, but either way it was no more than $130 INSTALLED. Also got the Audi beams installed too so I can't remember the exact price for the trim piece.

Haven't figured out how to edit posts on here yet, but also I forgot to mention I might have been either tax exempt or got a 10% discount. Just talk to your local dealer's parts department and ask if what's the best they can do. They'll probably take the 10% off for you.

Looks like the price went up. It was $12x when I bought mine in 11/17. I have an S5, and the PN# I used was 8W6-807-287-D-RP5

It really is ridiculous how expensive this part is for what it is. My dealer offered 10% off MSRP, which would have been around $200 bucks.

I almost didn't buy it even @ $120 bucks because it's still over priced, but caved in when I saw on pictures how clean it looked.

If you are thinking about or are in the process of ordering your sportback, have the dealer throw it in with install like I did. It's like floormats, they likely will not think twice about it to get the sale.
