- I’m today’s video we ended up doing one of the most common Audi A3/s3 mods! We installed the stock Audi Rs3 style grille on my 2016 Audi s3. This gives it such a different look and changed the whole front end. This is a fairly easy tutorial and cheap! The product link is down below. Don’t forget to give this video a big thumbs up and to subscribe if you haven’t done so already!

Props for doing a great job man, i watched videos of guys removing lights and getting washer fluid everywhere, you can tell you are abit apprehensive at first but you take the few seconds to approach it logically, car looks great btw :)
14:30 you can turn these to the right direction.
seriously the best video ive seen on how to do this, Super big thanks bro!
Thank you for that! I’m glad we can help. We have a bunch more tutorials on this car so feel free to check them out!
compliments the car perfectly
Thank you!
@@RatchetWrenches quick question I want this on my car I’m in the uk does the grill have the slots for the parking sensors?
Looks great 👍🏼I'll be doing a stage 2 tune next year once the warranty is up
Thank you! And yeah stage 2 will wake up the beast big time!, can’t wait to do it to mine aswell
How come you didnt just try switching sides on the sensors? Then they woulda been facing the right way.. otherwise good content it will def help me when mine gets here. thanks
Best style grille of all the rs3 grilles with the chrome surround and quattro thanks
Couldn’t agree more! And thanks for watching!
The quattro logo👌
Makes a huge difference right? Thank you!
I was wondering whether the a3 shares the same grill with the s3 because i want to be certain before i buy anything, thanks
I believe the s3 grill can mount on the a3 but they look different from an appearance stand point!
Great video thanks, going to attempt changing mine this weekend - what is the name of the electronic tool you are using? Looks a lot easier than manual screwdriver!
Thank you! It’s pretty straight forward, if you have any questions feel free to comment! But we used this tool here; amzn.to/3iU5oUD
@@RatchetWrenches Appreciate it, thank you!
I have an aftermarket RS3 grill on my s3. The Audi emblem is solid though, no holes in it, and i want to change it. Could i just buy a new emblem and swap it out?
Nice! And yes I believe you can change it out, I’m not exactly sure which one because there’s a lot of aftermarket ones out there with different fitment unfortunately so you’ll just have to research it a little bit
Where did you get the matching fog light housings? I can’t find any for a 2016 a3. Just OEM replacements. Thx
Since it’s the s3 it doesn’t come with fog lights so the housings you talking about are from factory
I saw a plate place, can you take that out?
Unfortunately those 3 holes are permanent but I’m sure you can cover them somehow. Personally I barely even notice them they blend in
5:24 how did you get this one out? no matter what tool I use, a ratchet or an electric, it will not budge... I used wd40 even and it is so tightly done that I cannot loosen it at all, any tips?
If they’re rusted in there and you’ve tried wd40 or heating them up there’s really not much left you can other then break the tabs and replace them it’s usually just a clip and then a screw
Hey Austin! Im having some issues with my s3. I have the prestige trim with the big radar on the front, any links I can get to a grille with a cutout for the radar? Ive looked for a while but have found nothing
Looking good! How has the grill held up with winter and driving? Did you get the S3 badge to go back on the new grill?
Thank you and actually held up perfectly. Unfortunately the s3 logo was a different style clip so I couldn’t put that one on this grill here. But they offer replacement s3 logos for cheap on Amazon, eBay etc. also I lowered my car and by accident ripped my bumper off and cracked the grille. So I ended up buying the rs3 bumper and repurchased another grill through this company. So stay tuned for a video on that if you’re ever looking to change out the bumper too
Does it fit on the all a3 models or is it different for hatchbacks vs sedans
This will fit a3 as well, just have to choose the right one on the website. Some are for cars with parking sensors, some are not etc
Hey, just saw you do the grille replacement on your Audi. Do you still have the old one???
I do still have it yes why?
Great video. I'm about to replace my grill too once it arrives. What length extension did you need to get to the deep bolt under the wheel well liner?
if you find out please let me know because i am just ordering the grill and want to have everything ready for when it arrives
Did it take long for it to ship ?
Maybe like 2 weeks tops honestly
Omg that grill.....take my money and do mine because I'm not risking any of that lol
Game changer and hahaha you in the jersey area? We can do it for you
@@RatchetWrenches St Louis...
Does any one know if this interferes with pre sense or ACC?
So if you have the big radar in front for all those functions you’ll have to order the one on the website that has the cutouts for those. In this video my car only has the parking sensors so this grille only had the cutouts for them and it works fine but you’ll need the other version !
@@RatchetWrenches I see, Thank you for your response! Greatly appreciated 😊
Did your under-tray/belly pan fit. I bought one of these from different vendor but under-tray wouldn’t fit
Yep we didn't have any issues with fitment
What’s that tool called your using for the torx screws ?
It’s an electronic ratchet made by Milwaukee
Looks awesome!
Thanks appreciate it!
This will work with the 2015 models right? Like rs3 honeycomb of the same year on an a3 quattro?
Correct! Anything up to the facelift (2017)
@@RatchetWrenches appreciate it!
@@RatchetWrenches turns out, I just decimated my bumper with a drill on accident like an hour ago conveniently enough lol. Will the bumper work too? 🤣
@@AllBeefWeinerThief hahaha oh boy 😂 but I would assume the bumper will too! But I’m not exactly sure. I’m sure online under the product description it usually should say what it fits
I have the stock front bumper, do I also need to change it to honeycomb in order to fit the honeycomb grill
No this will fit your stock bumper, in this video here I have the stock bumper aswell. Only installed the grill
@@RatchetWrenches Oh I see. Thank you very much. Mine is is an a3 2017 s tronic and the stock bumper does not have the honeycomb sides like yours does :(
Has all S3 Audi have front parking sensors or is it just USA versions ?
I’m not sure for other countries but I know for USA all come equipped with front parking sensors
Much better
Right! Game changer
Couldn’t agree more
What is the best website for aftermarket audi parts
www.ecstuning.com/?ranMID=43304&ranEAID=PiRFMjRO36s&ranSiteID=PiRFMjRO36s-KjiPbN5bHOb2ibJHdhirOA&Ratchet+Wrenches& hands down!
Nice
Thank you!
How about the square senaonrint the front
This one isn’t equipped with the sensor like the more expensive models but if it was it would have the cut out for it
@@RatchetWrenches thanks I purchased one after realizing my car has the sensor. Mine has the Quattro wide logo on the bottom I may not be able to cut it out
@@henriqueoliveira7106 gotcha yeah they should offer a grille that has the cutout for the sensor
@@RatchetWrenches update did great Dremel work and updated the grill to fit the sensor. No big issues
Sell me the oem one 👍🏻👍🏻
Ahh sorry we already sold it a while back
aside from the actual install, the garage is just a storage place. horrible. working on the street. ghetto. sorry man how can you be a true car guy without a place to actually do car work?
Lmao 🤣 far from ghetto. This job you don’t need a lift or a shop to do this install. If you need that you shouldn’t be working on cars. And I do have a shop for my business… so before commenting and looking like an idiot maybe do some hw on who you’re going to “attack” maybe also see our latest videos or other videos with us in the shop for actually doing things we need a lift for lmao.
