Yes, that is a crazy price from your dealer. Perhaps they made a mistake, there is also an aluminium matt version, which costs over Euro 500. Looks like they took the average

Dutch dealer price would be around Euro 150. I use the German etka and add around 20% to the German price and that always works out pretty well.

I would ask the dealer to double-check their price. Perhaps they took the price for the bumper itself - for which this would be the correct price.

I always ask the price using part numbers. Yes correct, the aluminium version was way beyond the ETKA price but not 3X, probably 2x (that part was also in stock).

I did ask why it was so expensive and he replied that he is not responsible for the mark up.

I live in a dealer monopolistic market, where owing an Audi can be your economic destruction, both in terms of parts and labor charges. I think dealer charges about 80 E per hour

Anyhow thanks for all info. I will purchase part from Germany.
