    Help: lower fog light area front bumper (standard) openings - honeycomb grill options

    Hi! I am seeking helping on the above. My Audis are a 2015 Audi Q7 4L 3.0T Quattro and a 2008 Audi A4 B7 2.0T FWD Cabriolet. Both I purchased new.

    My nephew, who was unhurt & no airbag deployment, hit a deer in January driving my A4. The impact was on the left front corner. Well, my insurance company totalled it for next to nothing so I bought my A4 back at their salvage value. This was under $700! My A4 had been 100% dealer maintained its entire life and had no service lights on. The Cab is literally my baby: a timeless design on a fun-to-drive convertible. I just put $2K into her in October, too!

    Back to my grill quest. I have been buying parts to repair my A4 and get it State-certified to retitle. The replacement lower front bumper cover has those openings next to the fog lights that I would like to put honeycomb grill inserts in. Note that I did replace the factory grill with a honeycomb one as part of some upgrades to my Cab. I also have new headlights with the daytime LED running lights inside the lenses.

    MY QUESTION (finally): Does anyone know a source or way to have the left and right fog light grills as honeycomb? There are lots of attachment tabs in these openings but no grills were ever in them as I recall.

    THANK YOU FOR ANY THOUGHTS! - Rich from north of Atlanta

    PS: I am taking pics of my repairs & upgrades to the front end of my A4 B7 that I will post once completed to help others in the future!

    Unless it is the DTM bumper, I could be wrong, but those would be custom for the Sline or standard bumper? Picture?

    Need pics.. You can buy honeycomb fog grilles for Sline bumpers, but not base models. Would need to customize. If you bought a honeycomb grille for it, sounds like you replaced it within a base model bumper? Most cabrios ive seen were sline..

    If you have S-Line, https://www.ebay.com/itm/18637130207...3ABFBMgrrWv-Zj this is what you're looking for. If you have Base model fog light inserts (upward curve rather than downward curve) then I think you're limited to DIYing. The honeycomb grilles available online are for Base models though, and if you have S-Line you need to DIY the grille. It's silly.


    Below I'll put a picture of my S-Line grille mods. The downward curve on the fog lights (which I replaced with the above link) is honeycomb, and the center grille on the car is DIY.
