Anyone bought one of those copy quattro grills off eBay?

Titanium blades at the side look at bit odd with the carbon splitter.

I have carbon side blades at home and a black grille. Just waiting to find the carbon lower grille section (facelift this time!) before removing the bumper. On eBay there are 2 for sale, one at £2k and one at £3k.

Although I thought I read you can change the side blades without removing the bumper. Can't find the instructions on ELSA.

All the carbon parts are hideously expensive. To buy from TPS or Audi it's over double what you'd have paid from the factory. They aren't mass produced and are hard to find.

Don't I know it. I tried to change my order after 4 days but it was already locked at the factory so have to do it the expensive way.

I'm not sure I could stomach that. Won't take much to chip/crack it and you'll be bent over again.

The whole front end is wrapped with ppf including blades and splitter. No need to worry.

Carbon is not immune to stone chips....a boulder appears to have hit by car at some point. Paint is cheap in comparison to replacing carbon bits.

[MikeFish]

Yes that's why I have them wrapped. And my carbon mirrors too. And headlights. The whole front end. Yes it won't stop a boulder, but it will stop the vast majority of stone chips. So far I've got no stone chips in protected areas although a boulder did rip my bonnet wrap last week. I think the paint survived, need to pour a bit of hot water on it to see if it can still heal. But worst case; 1 stone chip in 9000 mainly motorway miles is pretty good going. Shame I didn't wrap my roof though; that has a number of stone chips now.
