Default From what I understand, the grill won't fit...

without a fight on the 2.7t, 2.8 and 3.0. The grill will fit the 4.2 because of its hood.

Less than $200 from www.achtuning.com, takes 10 min. to install on a 4.2 or S6.

Default you may be able to retro-fit the mesh to your current grille

I found something close at my local steel supplier and am going that route ( assuming my shop ever finishes it.....)

Default You can "force fit" with some cutting, on a 2002+...

But, I wouldn't recommend it.

Default Yeah - I considered doing that. Buying the grill and cutting and welding it to my existing frame.

That will have to be a project for down the road when I get bored : )
