Thanks for getting this set up guys! Just added my info. We just need 4 more!

Question about fitment...description says it should fit 13-14 facelift models. Safe to assume this will work on 15 SQ5?

2 more weeks til I take delivery (hopefully). Can't wait to officially join the club!

yeah, it shouldn't be a problem as there were no changes made for 2015. if you look at the grill in post #1 and then look at the picture in post #14, you'll notice a subtle difference at the top left and right corners of the grill. on the 2013+ cars, the corners are "squared off," so to speak, making the grill 6-sided. in the pre-2013 cars, the grills are pretty much 4-sided. that's where the difference lies b/w facelift and non-facelift q5s, and they haven't changed it since the facelift.

Picture 5 shows without the RSQ5 badge, is the badge easily removable?

Anyone know if/price shipping for Canada?

Even though Product B's frame is chrome, the mesh should still be black, correct?? Haven't been able to decide between A or B, but I am definitely interested!

As of now, it's $290. Shipping is TBD. I'm trying to get better deal if we get more people, so I'm extending this to Audizine as well.

Yeah, I'm with you! I just wanted to double check because I was looking through a bunch of RS front bumper pictures and noticed a couple of them had chrome-looking mesh parts. I wasn't aware that they even came in any other color than black. Maybe it was the lighting in the photos.

Hey Everyone. Amanda from JC Sportline just got back to me. As soon as we get ten orders, the price drops down to $250 plus $85 in shipping. Let's go people! I want this grille! Just two more left. I plan to pay for mine this evening with her to get the ball rolling.
