Should you be able to see the ground through the front splitter?

On mine you can see through the holes that theres some type of hard foam which sits on top of the under tray,it sounds like its been repaired badly and it looks like the under tray is missing .

Yep... there is certainly something amiss behind that lower lip... makes one think if the people making the repairs cut corners elsewhere too...

Also the optic pack grill wasn't available with the Ali pack either as a factory option. Could also suggest a repair.

This is the one that's been for sale for ages, got sold, smashed up, repaired and for sale again. There are photos of it smashed in the other thread with this cars number plate in he title.

Just noticed that. Thought it was familiar when I saw the pic.

Weird as it had that spec when it was being sold by Audi as Approved before it got smashed up (see pic below)
Looking at it now, it does look weird - I did mention front bumper was off colour
