I just got my black optics grille installed at the body shop today. I installed the fog light trim myself (which was a big pain in the *** btw) the other night. My CF front splitter is sitting at home until Eurogear makes a decision on production of a CF rear valence.

Excellent! This might be an even better option than the Caractere -- either way, I'm not big on the extra chrome on the S5 grille.

i'm not sure how much the whole pkg is from the factory but i know that that pkg also includes the window trim which i did not buy ($900!)..the grille itself is like $400 and the fog light trims were around $25

I have always been a little bothered by the mismatching fog light grill surrounds on the S5 as I am a big fan of symmetry. Its interesting that the package gives you a closed grill surround for the left fog light trim rather than an open grill surround for the right fog light trim, which would then match the main grill. Do you know if there is a particular reason for that or am I the only one that thinks the open grill fog light surrounds would look better.
