i kinda want to check on the price to switch from smooth. i think audi is catching alot of attention making it look really fake and now they are adding the grill to force the "design intent" narrative.

I agree on the price comment, I am interested what needs to be replaced if we wanted to update. I like the way the mesh looks, I don't believe it looks more 'real', but to me looks less 'fake' (like the design was intended for the mesh to match the entire rear, rather than the flat black fake outlets trying to 'appear' to mimic exhaust outlets).

Does that make sense?
