S4 Black Grill Help!
#21
The black grille looks awesome. I checked them out on ECS Tuning, and they have two options - one if you have the parking aid and one without. What I'm confused about is I didn't know a front parking aid was even an option in North America? I have side assist, and the rear parking sensor (not camera) so I would need the grille without the parking sensor? Is the front sensor an option?
However, just to be safe you should email them... I don't have any sensors/etc so the choice was easy for me.

No I don't. I can probably call them and ask, but right now I just have the VIN number. Yeah the wait is killing me more, lost my '10 s4 in accident on 8/6, placed my order 8/18 and suppose to be at dealer on 11/3, so I've been car less since . Let me know if you do get yours on that date, I need the car ASAP

Yeah, just used a flat black "trim paint". It matches the grille close to perfect. That's the nice thing about flat black... really not much you can do to mess it up.
There's no other black "plate" option right now, and I didn't see the point of having someone do it professionally when most of it is covered by the license plate itself anyhow. lol
I used to not run a front plate, but they're cracking down around here and I don't want to deal with the potential fine.... a fine I had to pay on my prior NSX.

Lol... sorry, just pointing out that no car is safe. (some people think that cops won't pull you over if you're driving an "exotic" with no front plate... the NSX was on the fringe for sure, but it played the part, and I still got nailed. lol)

From the dealer number you can look to see if the VIN of your car has arrived.

From the dealer number you can look up the VIN of your car once it arrives.
