Audi S3 Grill on Audi A3 8P SportBack

[theo289]

Hi All,

I am about to buy a black s-line grill for my Audi A3 but have been told by the breakers yard that it may not fit my car?

Is this true?

The grill i'm looking at is here

Appreciate your help

What year is your car and im not sure if it matters which model e.g 8P2 or 8P3.

Cheers

No it won't fit. You will have a gap.

 

[theo289]

so is it a new bumper?

 

[A3Kent]

Yep, you need an S3 bumper but good luck finding one and for a good price. They are expensive because there aren't many around.

ah crap! i've found one but its in a bit of a mess

Hold on... The title says a S3 grill but your first post says s-line grill... Which is it?
a s-line grill fits directly onto a normal a3 bumper... The S3 grill fits in the bumper too but you will have an inch gap at the bottom as the s3 grill is shorter. This is why we say get an S3 bumper as well so that it looks better
