Default Q7 Front Lip

I'm sure most of you have seen this picture before, but any insight on the front lip this guy has installed? Is this custom or something that's available for the masses?

If any of you have any insight on how to go about procuring one of these, would love to hear from you!

It's an Audi OEM part - officially known as a "front apron" and is part of Audi's "Offroad Style Package 1". The whole package includes the front & rear apron, tailpipe trim, & door trims. I seem to remember seeing somewhere that the individual pieces were available thru Audi Parts. I was browsing the "classifieds" of another Audi forum & saw one for sale for $250.

Thanks man! I think i found it here: https://shops.audi.com/en_GB/web/zub...Id=50086#c3369

Looks a bit different then the pic i posted below and according to this link its only supported on 2010 and earlier.

I'm actually meeting with my dealer tomorrow to pick up my plates. Lets see what he's got to say.

Just an update. Got confirmation from my dealer this morning that this off-road styling kit was discontinued from Audi since 2010.

Anything available for newer models is most likely custom or aftermarket.

Even though the package was discontinued I wonder if there's any reason the part wouldn't fit a newer model if you could find it? Maybe an afternoon of forum classified / eBay browsing????

I was just browsing the Audi USA web site & found this listed as the "available Off-road Styling Package" option for the 2014 Q7. Maybe it's a geographical thing?

There is an off road style package for 2014.

It has the front and rear skid plates, but the moldings are painted body color and not plastic like the pictures above.

I've yet to see it, but it should be a nice looking factory package.
