Default How I affixed a quattro badge on an RS4 Grille.

<center><img src="http://pictureposter.audiworld.com/26413/dsc00267.jpg"></center><p>Firstly, I removed the quattro badge located on the OEM A4 grille.

This is accomplished by simply removing the two small clips that bind the badge to the grille.

After you have removed the badge, trim 1/4" of plastic from the inside of the U-shape located on the back of the quattro badge (I used a dremel tool with a small cutting wheel). Make sure not accidently cut through the existing square holes on each side of the mounting points. These will be used to affix the badge to the RS4 plastic mesh.

Place the badge in the desired location on the RS4 grille. I used the same location from the OEM A4 grille (bottom left).

Using a black snap-tie, affix the badge by feeding the snap-tie through the existing square holes on the back of the badge. Close and trim.

A couple of blobs of Krazy Glue works well too.

I like that way better than tape or glue.. that way doesnt require you to mess up the grill at all

I didnt' think it was water resistant. Did you use a special type?
