Any does NOT include the allroad, as that model kept the pre-facelift hood.
The 3.0 and 2.7T will work, but it will require some modification. This basically involves milling out the support frame that runs along the bottom edge of the grille. The narrow-body A6 hood has a full frame around the grille, vs. the "tabs" that are on the 4.2, S6, and RS6. So the grilles for those cars come with support structure built into the grilles.
5speed6 did a great writeup on how to retrofit the RS6 grille onto a narrow-body A6.<ul><li><a href="https://forums.audiworld.com/a6/msgs/618062.phtml">RS6 grille install for 2.7T</a></li></ul>
