The Audi/Audisport brushed or polished does not look like it will match from online pictures.

Default I'm using the Griott's brushed frame on the front. Matches pretty well. Not 100%...more like 95%.

Default Is that a pic of the Griots 4 hole in the rear?
You got it to fit the front as well with no overlap?

Default yup. I'm using the black version up front. The front was a little trickier...
I'm pretty sure I only used the top screws on the front and have machine screws and nuts securing the frame to the plate on the bottom.

I may have also used some stainless washers as a spacer (don't really remember).

Default Thanks! Taking that route
Hadn't thought to use black to match front trim, but then again I havent had the car long enough to look at it for more than 10 seconds.

Default no problem. I like the black on the front. Wish I didn't need a front plate at all...
but if I have to I want it to blend as much as possible.

I have the Audi Quattro frame and it matches the rear brushed trunk strip IIRC

Get the Audi Sport frame and get it painted to match your car.
