Ahhh yeah, the parts finally showed up! I can not wait to get them on.
  • 4 Pc Audi New Model 5x112 ( 66.6 H.B ) 12 MM & 15 MM Hub Centric Wheel Spacer [Link]
  • RS Style Grill (Version 1 because I have Prestige w/DAP). When you order from EMD Auto they come with the correct sensors already installed, and 3d printed bracket for camera.

How is the construction of the 3d printed camera bracket? Have been holding off on this purchase seeing not many with the camera have purchased version 1 since the update.

Hope you’re feeling “well enough” to capture your installation procedures and document it for the less adventurous members, as well as the “post surgery” results.

It is standard 3d printer quality. If I were to give it a grade, I would say 80/100. I have no doubts it will serve its purpose well. I could probably reproduce it in a couple hours or so.

How does it look now that it is installed and was it difficult?

Be very patient with the grille and organize all the screws you remove so that you do not mix them up.
Also, remember after pulling the wheel liners back, there's a push pin at the corner of the bumper, then another torx screw further inside the fender (at the line where the fender and bumper meet behind the headlight sidemarkers) that hold the bumper to the fender.
