Bought this as I somehow managed to lose my other cover but don't ask me how. One moment it was there and next it was gone!



Ooh you've just reminded me I was going to get one of these ages ago to replace the black one, but forgot about it.  Where did you get it from dave?

Go and have a look round the cars in your local Audi main dealer and you may just happen to come across one!   :whistle:

LOl. I just couldn't do it!

I know they are Audi but anyone got a part number?

More like what it did to me...

Boot lid was not as far open as I thought it was when I went to get my bag out at work this morning. Bashed my head off the pointy bit at the bottom edge of the window. It was bleeding for quite a bit, but the first aider has looked at it and its stopped now so no need to go to A&E thankfully.

Feel like a bit of an idiot more than anything else  :embarrassed:

Thought you might all need a good laugh this morning anyway!  :whistle:

See JB has beaten me to it in resposne, lol.

Yupp, got it from a local audi dealer parts and cost £4.45, part number as per JB.

Never even crossed my mind to sit in one of their cars to see if I come across one  :laugh:

Well I did need a good laugh this morning but not at the expensive of your head.  Ouch Dave!  That sounds painful.  Lucky you managed to avoid a trip to A&E.

Thanks for the info Dave.  Yeah, JB was quick off the mark.  A call to local Audi dealership is in order I think. Best not go in there, the temptation to pocket one of the little 12v covers might be too much to resist and set me on a life of petty crime.  :laugh:

I think you've missed the point there (no pun intended), Dave gets fixed for free if needed, is the car okay!??

Yes Watts I agree, its important to have our priorities correct! I'm happy to report the car is fine - not even any blood on it, although it may be difficult to see on the red paintwork. :laugh: One of my wo-wo red MFs did get covered though as it was the closest thing to try and wipe it off at the time - am sure it will wash out ok.

Not feeling any after effects so far, so I must be ok. However, I will be giving that area of the boot lid a particularly wide berth from now on!  :whistle:

As flesh is softer than steel I made the not difficult assumption that the car had come out on top of this little altercation.  :rolleyes:

Postie delivered a nice surprise today and as it was such a nice day I decided to install it.

Installation was a breeze. Actually took me longer to polish the exhaust tips as they had not been done in a long time.

I really like to look but now I am going to have to get the side skirts and front lower corner spoilers painted gloss black to match as they look terrible in comparison  :whistle:

The only bummer today is that I found out that the front spoiler of the car is too low for my wheel ramps  :cry:
