Do you know which clip you have the bigger or smaller one as I might have the other one and could send you it

i make one size

Ok look forward to hearing how you get on

I may be wrong but I think the clips are actually porsche parts, (there's 2 different types although they're pretty similar), check out vagparts I'm sure you can buy them individually , around £3 ish IIRC

Can anyone confirm that this is a porsche part?? Or has anybody got an alternative sollution for this?? or a few spare ones to sell?? I am desperate now.....

[quattro_king]

is not porsche parts....they are discontinued years ago....i bought the last 3 sets in holland. still have 1 new clip here in front of me,can be worth millions

[fish]

i know they are NLA, but someone said that they were probably porsche parts. Anyway, hasent anybody ever succeeded to put this damn grille on without the clips???

[quattro_king]

you have the grill but no clips??? not even 4 ?

[fish]

yes i have the grille as you still can buy it new, but not the clips. i have no clips what so ever

[Acidburn]

Just out of interest, how much is it to buy the grille new?

As I might be tempted to get one and my grille does still have a few clips on it but i've never tried fitting it to the car.

i payed about 1000 skr for just the grille frame, made my own mesh. That should be just under a hundred quid. otherwise i would be interested in your clips=)

If you really want to help get something done get in contact with the boys in VW/Audi's classic parts division. There has been some talk recently on audi-speed.de about the clips. The classic parts group has told one of the forum members that if they can get 5000 requests for them that they will produce another run of the clips.

Here's the thread. German only sorry. RS2 Kühlergrill Klammern Neuaufage

Here's Stefan's post translated into English.

I drive a convertible in my grill and RS2 could annoy me in the spring, because there are no more brackets at Audi there.
I now have at VW Classic Parts for the purpose of an inquiry launched a new edition.

There is this process is in progress, but must be at least 5000 pieces are manufactured. In order to advance the interest in this article estimate, so the question to YOU ...

WHO WOULD YOU OF INTEREST IN THIS RE?

Prices are not yet fixed, but should remain affordable.

Invites post your opinion in this article, I will be the result of the body forward.

Thank you.

Gruss Stefan

Personally I think that the 5000 number would be almost impossible to reach. but you never know. Around 714 sets would need to be requested before a new run. I sent them an email asking for a set. Maybe if we hound them enough they might do something.

Ok i'll have a word with my mate as he might be able to help out.

I do have a spare rs2 grille with some of the clips but the mesh got damaged slightly so I went and got a spare decent mesh so dunno what i'll do with them now.
