Full black optic grille would deffo suit that colour car, there are loads of pics out there mate to help you make your choice. I'm sure someone will be along shortly with some example :icon_thumright:
 
Black surround and grille... Tak look through the pics thread mate

Example of optics... Post 426 on Page 9,,, loads out there though.

sick :) what you think would suit mine then scotty ? black grill with chrome outer edge or just all black as i will have either ?
 
Black all over with silver audi symbol. Defo!

Have a look at ~FK grilles, they are a cheaper alternative to the oem optics grills.
 
hmmm i think i will go with black optics grille then but ... do you have to buy them as i have a body shop near me that my dad is best mates with and does paint jobs for me for free, i was thinking about taking my grille out and getting him to paint it, would that work the same?
 
It could do, but It will chip very easily and runs the risk of looking shoddy after a short while

You can get a black FK grill for around £70.
 
quick one, is the S3 front grill a straight swap with the A3 S-Line grill or is it smaller?
