Audi SQ5 plastic bumbers?
Hey everyone,
I just went to the dealer because i lost / got stolen the little plastic on my bumper, they want $800 :eek: Anybody have an idea where i can get this for a reasonable price? https://cimg4.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.aud...9df9e63486.jpg |
Junkyard? Surely there are some wrecks out there. Check with a local body shop They have a network for used part searches.

800$ what a joke! good luck in your search.

holy batman, $800 for that piece ??? geezzzzz

Value pricing. To be fair, that is the complete headlight washing "robot" assembly as the cap/cover is not sold separately. Plus, the body shop has to prime, paint and clear coat the generic cover to match your vehicle. And the paint has to be diluted with flexing solution as that part flexes a bit.
Have someone operate your headlight washers while you watch and you'll understand why it's an expensive assembly. German vehicle service parts are usually marked up 2.5x from OEM assembly line prices. So, get one from a junkyard and likely spend another $100.00-200.00 for an independent body shop paint it for you. Price varies if they have the paint or not. I've paid about $300.00 for a quart of Pearlescent paint for my D3 A8L. Plus primer, base coat and clear. It looks like this is not Pearl so hopefully less. Of course if that's just a cap then, well, that's the price of driving a nice vehicle. Part plus the painting fee. |
it's just the cap.
I understand that it's a pricy car but $800 for a little piece of plastic is a little extreme. i'll check junk yard to see |
