Default Front Grill Fix 2017

Anyone have guidance whether one can replace a single strip on the grill? Seems like the silver plastic snaps in and out.

Or does is the entire grill need to be replaced?

OUCH!! I don't know what hurts more, the crack on the OP's grille or the price of a replacement @ $1,200..

I'd leave it alone. The only person who notices that is the OP

$649 at 'https://automotix.net/usedautoparts/2017-audi-q7-grille-inventory.html?fit_notes=0ce6cc3bd9cbccdb67ca1463d 7734f35&seq_num=2' and you will have some spare strips as spares.

You might be able to find one cheaper if you search. I wouldn't pay full price if you can change just the strip from a donor part.

good luck

So either....
Get one from a junk yard to replace that bit. OR

Get a new grill and plan to change it BTW look https://www.alibaba.com/product-deta...4eaf456bmEc2FK $245 for a SQ7 grill. It's not bad. The cost in changing the grill without the need for sensors calibration would be the rout I would suggest.

Let us know what you do and update with pics as I am sure it will help others eventually.
