The front rings have a top and a bottom. It looked like you had the first set upside down, and that's why they didn't fit right. I had that same issue when I installed mine, and after flipping them it fit perfectly.

[@synaptik111]

Looks amazing!! Nice job

[@KevG]

Thanks a lot🤘🏼

[@davidflint7507]

I’ve just bought a black edition A4 and the black rings / badging doesn’t come as standard it’s an optional extra

[@Carlosization1]

Good job! I used the matte black ones. Are those rings gloss black? I couldn’t tell from the video.

[@sirfelix2020]

Looks great! 🔥

[@KevG]

Thanks a lot! Subtle upgrade but it makes a huge difference for sure

[@Glories999]

Any type of addiciton adhesive I can buy which won't f*ck up my paint work? I bought the black audi badge for my a3, but the top middle part is already seperating from the car.

[@charlesnay2289]

Great video. I followed your method of removing the front rings. Flawless and quick. Watch several others struggle . Starting with one of the middle rings was key. Bravo !

[@KevG]

Appreciate it! Glad to help🤘🏼

[@semenvelocity]

removing the front rings was an absolute bitch-and-a-half. 😂 broke almost every single connector piece on the chrome grill rings. (i didn’t use his tutorial and wish i did)

[@boxacle]

What rear spoiler and diffuser are you running? Looks sick!

[@KevG]

Thanks a lot! Lowkick carbon spoiler from carbon imports and the diffuser also from carbon imports

[@boxacle]

​@KevG Thanks! Also, not sure why my initial comment didn't post, but if you want to add the OEM badges to the description, I just bought a set from the stealer. 8W0-071-804 Rear S4 8W0-071-802 Rear Rings 8W0-071-805 Front S4 8W0-071-801 Front Rings

[@KevG]

@@boxacle good info thank you!

[@Diljale_007]

What does the item called to remove the glue or sticky tape after removing the logo. Thanks

[@KevG]

I would search rubber wheel drill attachment. I think I linked one in description

[@Carlosization1]

I’m very hesitant to do that to my rear rings on my 2019 Q8 sLine prestige. I am concerned because of the upper portion because it fits into a plastic piece. If you look at the picture of the rear of a Q8, you’ll see what I mean.

[@alexnorton3396]

Have you got the part number of the emblems you bought? Looking to do the same to mine

[@KevG]

I actually don’t… I found most the eBay ones will be the same, just double check the sizing and measurements

[@psyct1]

I ended up going OEM for my B9.5 S4 from Europrice, was a bit pricey at $400 but, I got the OEM front and rear Audi/S4 black out badges. Front install took all of a minute and a half with a pry tool. Front S4 badge, I slide my pinkie from the front under the original S4 badge and pressed up on the tab while pulling on it and it popped right out. New one popped right in. For the least amount of hassel, OEM is always the way to go!

[@hudsonweaver130]

I disagree. eBay stores have always treated me very well. I got a RS style honeycomb grill for my A4 that was $160 with tax. That’s half the price of the same OEM grills and it came with a gloss black logo among other emblems. There’s really no need to blow hundreds for a couple of plastic pieces that 3rd party companies will rip the dimensions and 3D print for way cheaper.

[@macdaddy1234ism]

Where did you order your black badges though that have good quality bro ??

[@KevG]

Honestly eBay

[@Pluto2gunz]

I plan on getting an s4 or s5 shoutout to the algorithm

[@KevG]

Let’s gooooo

[@angay9614]

Where did you get the badges from?

[@KevG]

ebay

[@Fashizzlesticks]

Pretty annoying that the black optics package does not include black badges, front rear, or fender inlays.

[@46Ashgrove]

I did this to my q2, a week later I reversed it back to the original silver 😑 my opinion the silver looks better, my car colour is Daytona Grey.

[@hillsr]

@4:37 To love somebodyyyyyy 🎤 #KeithSweat j/k

[@GrandChampion007]

Why didn’t you just put the new emblem on the old glue?

[@KevG]

Old adhesive was shot. Almost impossible to remove the emblem and have anything left

[@Nick-tu6nk]

got to love ebay fitment

[@KevG]

Lol right

[@Rzn8958]

nice! Ya'll didn't ruin the ring bezels on the front grill removing the rings. Video from other dude in Europe botched his shit lol.

[@KevG]

It’s very easy to😅

[@thebirdhasbeencharged]

You did almost everything wrong lol, wild

[@KevG]

Worked for me!

[@thebirdhasbeencharged]

@@KevG Yh that's what matters!

[@advocado7373]

The rear looks awesome, but the front... black on black, looks like a mess IMO.

[@KevG]

Hmm.. not sure there’s a better way to match though

[@advocado7373]

@@KevG yeah... I know. B9.5 has a better way - stock silver grill and black badge.

[@krellejenbo]

You put the front rings upside down, thats why it didnt fit

[@KevG]

🤔
