Hi guys,

I'm the proud owner of a new S-Line Q5 2017, based down in Miami, FL. I'm actually a British expat who moved here a few months ago so still getting used to the left hand drive :-)

I found out that FL state law doesn't require a front plate (which is awesome - makes the front end look so slick!), however the car I ordered was delivered with the plate mount. So I'm looking for advice on which filler to purchase.

So far Audi have been fairly useless and told me the following part should fit, however they can't guarantee it:

8R0-807-287-E-T94 TRIM

I was hoping someone else could confirm if this is the correct filler for an S-Line with front parking sensors? Attached pic of the car!



Appreciate anyone's input to make sure I don't buy a bogie!

Cheers!

it looks like it will fit-it fits 2016 S-line according to ESCtuning.com

I'd buy this plate from a vendor that would accept it back in case it does not fit.

That part # is for the black gloss panel with the two chrome lines and parking sensors.

I just bought the same OEM part, for the same Q5 (mine) for less than ECS.

Thanks guys. @Passingas - cheers for the tip. How easy was it to fit? Did the plate holder panel come off easy enough?

I got it from https://www.audionlineparts.com/oe-audi/8r0807287et94 and they are a forum vendor.

There are two screws in the filler panel that you remove. You can see them in your picture. Then you can pull out the panel. There are tabs on the top and bottom so be careful. Also take care not to pull the panel out too far. You have to remove the parking sensors by prying the tabs apart. Putting the sensors back in the new panel was a bit more challenging. Mine kept popping out, but I got it in after a few tries.
