Default part number for euro front grille insert? so no US front plate

is there only the grey version or do they make a glossy black version for A5 S-line?

Take the filler panel off, there's a euro holder behind it on 09s.

Default huh?

i think we might be talking about two different things.
i'm referring to the current grille which has a US plate shaped portion on the glossy mid-bar to mount a front license plate.
(don't have a good pic on the A5, but this is what i'm referring to)

i'm wondering where there's a plate delete/euro grille insert available.
i can find ones that would match an S5, but not the gloss black of an A5 S-line

so like this... and what the part number would be

If you take off that U.S. plate holder, underneath you will find the Euro plate holder.

Default I don't see it on their website, but shoot these guys an email. They could probably get one

or at least help you find out how to get one. I got an insert for an S5 from them.

I also got my Euro Headlights from them. They're very helpful and usually very quick about responding to emails.

info@madaudi.com

Hope they can help you out. If nothing else, I've heard of people painting theirs but who knows if it'll hold up.

good luck.<ul><li><a href="http://madaudi.com/">Mad Audi</a></li></ul>

Default sorry if i came across like an ***. you, of course, were correct.

not the exact thing i was looking for since there's an indentation for a euro plate and no chrome bars on the top/bottom, but for the price of $free.50 it's perfect!!
thanks again
