Plan is to respray the rings front and rear to match the aluminium styling pack....

Anyone know of the colour code or if replica badges are available in correct shade....tried fleebay with no success.

Thanks in advance

Not seen any advertised in matt silver,  You may be better buying a set from fleabay and spraying yourself..... or having someone do it.

You won't find the front rings on Fleabay unless they are genuine parts or nicked from a motor.

 

I had a long chat with a chap who does all different sizes in different colours and he told me ours are a unique size so they are not worth making as no real demand for them.

 

The rear ones are a common size.

the rear rings are not all the same size as i brought a red set for mine, when i toke the chrome ones off the red ones were 1/4 ring bigger but as they only sticks on wouldn't really matter

Toby, I didn't say they were all the same size, I said they were a common size. I measured mine and they were available because more than just an RS3 uses that size. I would guess all A3's use the same rear size. Our grill is different, hence the rings are different.
