Will a V12 Grill fit the pre-facelift models? I have a 2007 model and am looking at this grill:

I see where it list the grill for a 2008+ but did the grill's really change from 2007 to 2008?

I'm not 100% sure but without any experience with the v12 grill specifically I would assume it fits. I've had the front facelifted on a 2006 model and both grills looked identical (never tested if they fit though) but I've seen pre-facelift non S-line Q7 models fitted with a facelift Q7 grills. So in theory the V12 grill should be the same size and should fit any Q7 bumper.

Had the normal facelift grill on my 07 model.

Had the option of a V12 or normal grill so I suppose both will fit. Though certain tabs had to be cut out.

I have one from my '11 S-line for sale, it was listed on the classifieds. PM me if you're interested.

SoCal,

Which grille have your replaced the original with? Any pictures?

Cheers

I went with the RS style grille about 4 months ago. Fitment is spot on, quality is OK, plastic just feels a little thinner than OEM.

Thanks, looks awesome!

Could you tell me if your Q7 has Adaptive/Radar Cruise Control (ACC)? If so, any fitment issues with the grille or was it already configured for this?

I have just bought an original Q7 Black Optic Grille (matte-black finish) which is the standard factory non-ACC grille (I am changing over my chrome-finished grille - tired of the look). However, only thing is that my Q7 has the ACC option so will find out soon (once delivered) whether I can adapt this standard grille for ACC sensors or whether I'll run into issues...

A heads-up would be great.

Cheers.

My Q7 doesn't have ACC, so finding an aftermarket grille wasn't too much of a challenge. This grill came with plastic clips for the front parking sensors olnly.

PM Sent. I like the RS Grill but my lower side grills are for a pre-face lift so they are slats not mesh.

Thanks for confirming.
