A large stone smashed the nsf grill at the weekend (the one nearest to the main grille)

Ordered the part from Audi cost £84.65 this morning

Any experience of fitting? Easy to do? Without removing the bumper? Any advice would be appreciated

Thanks

Not been on the B8 bit for ages sure a little push and these pop out reasonably easily and think I have one in my garage not sure if left or right though

Should be held on with some little lugs that sit behind the grill,
time and patience and it should just come pop out.

Top pic shows locators these don’t clip in other shows clips so these are on other sides maybe flat head screwdriver wrapped in duster to protect and gentle pry they only rot rude 2-3 mill below it

Quick update, damaged grill came out easily and new one popped in place

I'd bought one of these:

Used the slimmest ends to ease off / release the catches and it came out very easily

Thanks for the help :redrs4:
