Hi JulioMartinez908,

The RSQ7 grill has built in brackets for the parking sensors. They are simply a pressure clip on the original grill and the same clips connect to the RSQ7 grill. Very simple.

It should be pretty easy. The toughest part of the job is getting your arms down inside there to access the screws. If you have big arms, it is going to be difficult.

Love this look, I put the RS grille on my S4 but I'm afraid to take on the Q7, I've just got too much tech mounted to the grill- parking sensors, cameras, adaptive cruise sensors, I'd be afraid of **** not working properly.

My Q7 is not equipped with Adaptive Cruise or a front camera. The RSQ7 grill does not have built in brackets for that tech. If you have those features I would not recommend this upgrade.

I've been searching for a "reputable" seller to purchase a RS style grille from. Can you please let me know where you bought this? Thank you! BTW: I am looking for this for a '14 Q5/SLine.

black backing the radiator and oil cooler would definitely clean up the front of that q7.

Hey guys, first time on here. Just bought an 07 and looking to do the mod to the center and lower grills. Any update to which is a reputable seller? Looks like these guys have the OP pictures, but trying to see if anyone knows a cheaper option?

That looks like the same grill. I found mine on Amazon for $300. Not sure that is available anymore. Good luck.

AUDI RSQ7 GRILL UK STOCK AUDI Q7 GRILLE FITS 2006 TO 2014 S LINE V12 ABT W12 SE | eBay

Roughly $350 is the cheapest I have found and they seem to be all the same grill. I'd imagine they're from the same manufacturer with varying levels of markups?

Also, we have a daytona grey S-line TDI with all black emblems and trim.. but those black finishes are satin/flat. Has anyone painted this entire grill or know if one in a matte/satin finish exists? I'd hate to spend that kind of money on a grill only to have to paint it and then worry about how my DIY finish holds up over time..

Has anyone ran one of these with ACC and the front camera installed?

The camera bracket I imagine could be made to mount, but the ACC looks a little more trickey; like we would have to butcher the existing plate mount to "borrow" the window and heating element to mount directly in front of the ACC radar.
