Was on my door step when I woke up this morning, musta been delivered late last night.




Best part is this...the angle.
If it were straight up and down, it wouldn't look nearly as cool as when they lay it back slightly like this.
On my Jaguar, that was the best look...angled back.

Will you have to drill something to get it mounted to the frame?

Another member of Audizine said he was able to get by using just 3M double-sided tape but Mashell doesn't recommend that only.
Unlike my Jaguar installation, two small holes need to be drilled and then it attaches using the included hardware.

The holes are so far under the front valance, you would have to have your head on the ground to see them so I'm not worried about that part much.

Now I have a bracket and no car to attach it to,lol...!

I'm more interested in corrosion/rust from drilling onto the frame.

Valid point...but I don't think they go into the frame at all, they're 10mm bolts with a 1/2" reach.
Instructions say to use a 1/8" bit.

good to know.

Now to suck it up an buy a friggin license plate blank cover for the grill- sigh

That last image shows the difference in placement over the stock location...night and day!

NO way I'd ever even consider mucking that grille area up with a license plate.

Just a funny observation since one of the 'pros' of this unit is not having to drill holes in the bumper to mount your plate.

except that audi doesn't require any drilling of the bumper to mount the plate and this solution requires you to in fact drill into the painted portion of the bumper.

While true ,it's so far underneath you'd have to have your head on the ground to see it.
