Black front grille rings. Paint originals or is there an aftermarket part?

this is what I used for the front grill when I swapped my stock grill for Ti grill

I used this on the back of car

The front one is totally straight and the tabs are a little smaller then on the stock one so I used a strong adhesive on the back of it and tied the ends down cause they stuck up ever so slightly on the end compared to stock front grill rings. NOt a big deal but I wanted it to mount flush. Looks great. Just gotta get some pics up

I can't wait to get into those seats on the S4 and run through 6 manual spds again!! Wooo Hoo!!

Good luck with your very sweet looking ride.

Joking? Kinda not really. I was looking for help, thanks. I had read about the update, but one sales person said no update till the fall and another sales person said only the a4 will be updated this year.

So, I looked to my brothers and sisters for help.

I didn't notice a delivery date to the stores. Anybody know?
Thanks

Looks great. Only issue I see is that they put an automatic shifter in your car. Must have been a mix up at the factory. Hahaha. JK. Beautiful car and color. Only thing I would do right away is add the silver mirrors to give it the S look but then again its not my car so drive it and enjoy it.

With the Ti package does it remove the silver front and rear diffuser trim as well?
