B7 RS4 US spec number plate plinth

[Robnic]

Hi Faisal,

FYi the link you posted is what my plinth looks like, new and for sale if anyone wants it. The plinth you've pictured have you received it does it definately fit the RS4 grill or just an A4?

Thanks

Rob

Hi mate,

Did you ever price up one like Faisal's from TPS? I want the same one with the parking sensor holes but I'm struggling to find one online to order.

Failing that, is the one you have the same except minus the holes?

Hi, TPS sent me the part number I ordered it was the wrong one when I checked on the back it was a different part number to the packaging I am still waiting for them to get another one in I did chase them two weeks back, will have another go at them Monday...

No joy with this yet TPS ordered a few different part numbers and none are the smooth type with PDC holes I've left the guy looking into it some more...

Cheers

Were any of the incorrect ones that came by any chance the US-spec with sensor holes?

Hi,

The Stateside ones are smooth but they don't have front PDC so no holes, fecked if I know what part number to order to get a smooth with PDC tried the part number Faisal has a pic of even sent that pic to TPS it came but with different part number and no holes TPS re-ordered it incase it was packaged wrong and same one came again??

Obviously it is available but is taking some getting hold of!!

Rob. Do you remember what the price is for the none PDC version from TPS?

I want to use one to manufacture a tool to make a Carbon equivalent but obviously cut the holes in after cure.

Hi bud,

just under £60 but that was 2 years ago and I do get a bit of trade discount of around 10 - 15%. Part number looking back on our system is 8E0 807 287 C3F Z - but that doesn't look quite right probs one of the girls in reception typo'd sorry!

Just remember if you are making one the postion of the sensor is determined not by the plinth but the mounting in the grill behind the hole is just there for it to pass through sure you are aware just thought I'd mention it. My grill is carbon wrapped one of your plinths would suit mine

Cheers

I'm tempted to buy a non PDC smooth plinth and drill my own holes, should be easy enough to get them in line with the sensors?

That was my thoughts but the smooth plinth has an upper and lower strip the upper strip overlaps where the hole needs to be.
