    we gotta keep these prices to ourselves...if it gets out just how valuble they are they'll begin to disappear from our trucks just like the mercedes benz hood ordaments and then the only place you'll be able to find a spare is around the neck of some gansta rapper

          The grille on eBay that AndrewIIA linked to has been modified, the hole throught which you reach the bonnet release has been significantly enlarged.

                  i still check the front grill of my VW to make sure some beastie boy hasn't made off with the moniker yet. Man, i hate that guy for popularizing it.

                    That is amazing.
                    At those rates I'd sell mine, the only thing I have left from the S3 I had in high school.

                      That's because you can get more chicken on them, and S3 Grills aren't much good for cooking. In fact they're not much good for anything except adorning S3s.
