Default Bumper Grille(s)

I recently smoked a piece of tire shrapnel off a Semi blowout ... and I took it to my driver side fog light ... ultimately taking out the lower grille piece that surrounds the factory fog light.

Does anyone know where I can get the replacement parts .. It comes as two pieces and the dealer wants an arm and a leg for the OEM parts.

Any info would be greatly appreciated!

I had a buddy in high school we called "big perm."

And then I found $20.

Cheapest place you're gonna find them is from a part out, but those are usually one of the first things to go from part outs for this exact reason, so you really gotta be on it. Welcome to AF

ok so pissed my dads friend just told me about this site. said he orders stuff there all the time. (he rebuids cars and sells them) each grill is like 8 bucks after i paid like 60 fore each. putting it out there for those who need them may not be oem but thay look the same and are said to be direct fit. lots of cheap parts for all sorts of cars. (we were looking for front end parts for our toyota t100 (my dad hit a deer earlier today) so we gotta order all the parts. any way long story short for those who dont wanna pay 60 bucks for these grills when you can pay 8

I ended up ordering the parts from Shokan.com ... They are super easy to work with, the parts are mostly used OEM parts .. and a lot cheaper than factory replacement parts. Recieved my shipment within like 3 days.

I ended up buying the fog light as well, and they came out to:

Fog Light = $75
Grille = $30
Bezel = $15

and a few bucks for shipping and handling ... that was a huge savings over the $370 estimate I recieved from the Audi dealer.
