Hello all,

I'm after a carbon fibre rear ashtray for my B7 RS4.

Does anybody have one lying around? Or can anyone at least help me find the right part number?

Cheers
Si



EDIT - Part number if anyone is looking for one is - 8E0857961AG45X

This one says it came from an RS4 but the weave doesn't look right to me.

Agreed, that does look weird.

This one on ebay looks legitimate.

Think I'll be ok going with this?

Thanks Arthur, will take a look when I get home, flickr is blocked in work.

You just had the top bit didn't you? I definitely need both bits, completely destroyed it last week. :boohoo: Apologies for not getting back to you before though, my bad.

The first ebay link is for a B6/B7 S4 ashtray. They have a tighter weave than the B7 RS4.

I did but he wanted to keep all the carbon trim together which is understandable. Cheers anyway :thumb:

Yep that's what I thought, thanks. Not in a rush to fix it, just wanted to be sure of the part number.

Si, If you can't get hold of an OEM item this company will be able to wrap a non-CF one for you:

May be worth investigating if an OEM one doesn't turn up. They have done loads of stuff for me over the years and are top quality.
