Probably been asked before. But can't find a solid answer. Looking for a good quality honey Combe grill for my s3 8p preface lift. Preferably gloss black. But able to paint if not. Any help would be appreciated.
 
you have to custom make them, i think its from a c5 rs6 grill. use that mesh with the s3 outer frame and glue in. Bit of a job and quite expensive if it goes wrong.
 
You can get a honeycomb grill off eBay. I fitted one to mine last week, payed £125 for it and quality is good.
 
Sorry just read the post properly and noticed it's for an s3, I don't think they fit s3.
 
as above, only way is to make your own. Xenons.co.uk (or anyone else) don't make them for pre-facelift s3 for some reason!?
 
Xenonz dont make the pre-facelift? Bah! :(

Quick google shows that an RS6 grill should work with minor adjustments?
 
I was goin to do the rs6 grill onto a pre a3 grill but it would cost a lot of money. From what I've read up on you get an rs6 grill seperate the chrome from it and slowly trim away until it fits into the a3 grill. Then bond on with something like haraldite I think it'd called. Filler it, sand, prime then paint. Sounds easy but from what I've seen takes a lot of patience. So I've ended up purchasing the xenonz grill off eBay and I'm hoping to fit it next week. A guy on vwvortex has done it on there.
