Hi guys and gals,
Just thought I'd post a few pics of the OEM Audi gloss black / Black Optics B-pillar trims fitted. When I was scouring posts here before looking for info, I never actually found any pictures - so thought I'd share.
Before:
After:
They look ****** fantastic, so much better than the faded, dull-matt finish on the old ones. I'm very happy. As is the wife (it's her car).
I gave them a couple coats of collinite before fitting, and cracked on. Very easy, all you need is a 3mm drill bit to drill the old rivets out. Simple as that.
The parts from Audi cost just under a hundred quid including the rivets. Part numbers can be got from the invoice below. I was expecting the rivets to have black heads as per the OEM rivets on the car, so paid the frankly outrageous price of £1.25 each for the Audi ones. However, on arrival they turned out to be were standard silver anyway... Lol.
As arrived:
And matching the Black Optics front grill
Thanks for looking, hope this is of help to some fo you looking to do the same.
