Now this is really weird.
I just did a search for the part number of the trim and up popped one, for sale by our sponsors.
This is the eBay listing:
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Audi-A8-D2...-/131660005951
But look at the picture.
It is absolutely, 100% definitely a picture of the part I have in my possession. Check the marks.

I guess they've just reused a library picture and it happens to be the one I bought.....
(Anyway I know what it's worth now )
