This is not a standard painted plastic grille. The carbon weave surround is immediately visible and sets this apart from every other RS3-style grille on the market.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eAvailable in two variants with ACC cutout and without for a clean, precise fit regardless of your car's specification.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat makes this grille different\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eMost RS3-style grilles on the market are entirely ABS plastic. This one combines a real carbon fiber outer surround with a gloss black ABS honeycomb mesh centre — giving you the visual impact of carbon where it actually shows, at a fraction of the cost of a full carbon grille. The natural 2×2 twill weave is visible across the entire border frame, with a \"quattro\" script badge integrated into the lower carbon section.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCompatible vehicles\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-pre-wrap leading-[1.7]\"\u003e✅ Audi A3 8V.5 Facelift — Hatchback, Saloon \u0026amp; Sportback — 2017–2020 ✅ Audi S3 8V.5 Facelift — Hatchback, Saloon \u0026amp; Sportback — 2017–2020 ✅ Audi A3 e-tron 8V.5 Facelift — 2017–2020 (minor modification required around charge port)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-pre-wrap leading-[1.7]\"\u003e❌ Audi A3 \/ S3 pre-facelift 8V (2013–2016) — different grille surround shape, does NOT fit ❌ Audi A3 \/ S3 8Y (2020+) — new generation, entirely different front end, does NOT fit ❌ Audi RS3 8V — RS3 has its own factory grille; this is a style upgrade for A3 \/ S3 only\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eChoose the right variant — ACC or non-ACC\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eWithout ACC — for cars without Adaptive Cruise Control or Audi Pre Sense.
