Used Audi A4 Front Grille

The B8 generation A4 ran from 2008 to 2015 and received a facelift in 2012, which updated the front grille design. Grilles from within the same pre-facelift period (2008–2011) or within the same post-facelift period (2012–2015) should be a direct match for one another. Always confirm the exact part with your breaker quoting against your registration to be sure.

These two cars fall either side of the B8 facelift, which took place in 2012 and brought a revised front-end design including a new grille style. The 2010 car is pre-facelift and the 2013 is post-facelift, so they may well use different grilles. Confirm directly with the breaker whether the specific panel you're being quoted crosses that facelift boundary and fits your car.

No — the B8 (2008–2015) and the B9 (2016 onwards) are entirely different generations built on different platforms, and their front-end panels are not interchangeable. Always make sure the breaker is quoting you a part from the correct generation for your car.

Generation and facelift period are what determine whether a grille physically fits, not the trim level — so an SE, Sport, or S Line all share the same mounting points within the same generation and facelift phase. However, S Line models typically came with a more aggressive grille surround or different finishing detail, so a grille pulled from a lower trim car may look slightly different on your car even if it bolts straight on. Tell your breaker which trim your car is so they can match the cosmetic style as closely as possible.

Within the same generation and facelift period, the front grille is shared across body styles — saloon, Avant estate, and cabriolet all use the same front-end panels. This means you don't need to specifically seek out a grille from the same body style as your car, just the same generation and facelift phase. Confirm the part number with your breaker against your registration before buying.

For the B8 generation, the pre-facelift cars (2008–2011) had a slightly different grille frame and surround compared with the post-facelift cars (2012–2015), which adopted a sharper, more angular look in line with Audi's styling update at the time. The easiest way to check is to give your breaker your registration number, as they can look up the exact build date and confirm which version you need.
