    I would be interested in this too. I think the only option is to have a printing company try and replicate them for you. The only way to get them from Audi is to order them with new callipers which is way too pricey

    All you need to do is go to your local decal/graphics shop, and have them made. They can literally do them in any size, shape, or color of your preference.

    There's some on eBay, UK, item number 200615415368, around £7 each and heat resistant. If someone gets any, would be interesting to know how you get on.

    From the factory they aren't decals, they are screen printed (or whatever) directly onto the calipers. On other cars I have tried the decal route but always been disat after a while as they generally discolour after a while and the break dust attacks the edges of the decal and makes them look tacky.... IMHO

    It does say on the guys ebay listing that the decals should be covered in varnish or lacquer to ensure a long lasting finish. Not sure if you need a special varnish or lacquer to cope with the heat.
