Looks awesome, that is a rare color where I live for the S5 Coupes or Sportbacks, like it!

I can't believe Audi is still putting chrome rings on the front of our BO cars and black rings on the A5's BO cars. That makes no sense.

I agree, but I guess they did this to save a few pennies.

FYI, my 2019 TT RS Black Optic did come with black rings and you can order them from parts. I might end up switching them out,

If you decide to switch em you're going to be disappointed/aggravated.

The rings on our car (B9.5) are a different size than what is for sale everywhere. If I remember the measurement correctly ours are 9.5" and all of the ones for sale around the internet start at 10.5" and increase in size from there. I even bought one just to make sure all of the measurements in the for sale ads weren't incorrect--they weren't. There's no black rings available for us UNLESS the ones on the 2021 A5 BO fit.

I thought about removing and painting them then I read that everyone destroys them when they're taken off. I even thought about taping around them and plasti-dipping them but I'm not THAT desperate for black rings lmao.

Are the emblems on the back of your car black?

I would buy the official Audi parts and not rely on eBay sellers.
