Can anyone confirm if this is the correct PN for the black optic SQ5 grill?

Part number radiator grille: 8R0-853-651-AG-CKA








Is the grill really $800 for this thing? I don't know if I would want to try and change out all of the window trim or screw with pulling the inside apart to do the roof rails but the grill looks a bit more sporty.

They also said there is a different rear trim on it as well, but I have yet to see a picture of it

Waste of money IMO. Looks plasticky and cheap compared to the silver OE grille.

That number belongs to 2009 - 2012 MY standard Q5 models.


Maybe this one: 8R0 853 651 AJ 05/13 CKA black



around EUR 630,00 in Germany...

HI all, my wife loves this grille. She now has asked for me to hunt one down. Only problem is we have a 2010 Q5. Does anyone know if this grille is out there, but in the 2010 shape?

Google it there are a ton of replica and real replacement grills - even eBay has a bunch.
Be very careful with the roof rails. When our original Q5 was in a fender bender, they removed the roof rails to respray. What a mistake - Two different Audi dealers could not get it back in (you remove all of the headliner etc...) without the ensuing creaks and squeaks and from that point on I have always had a rattle of some kind.
