Default Where to get old style S8 rear emblem?

The title says it all. This old rectangular rear emblem, 4D0853735A is no longer available. The replacement part is the new style logo, 4D0853735A 2ZZ.

Any ideas where the get the old one?? I've been looking on eBay but all I can see are the newer logos. I haven't been able to find one from used Audi parts dealers either.

Any advice is appreciated!

I tried and tried and tried many years ago after my PF was repaired and they put a new style emblem on having stupidly discarded the old one.

I did get one eventually (possibly from our sponsors?) but it was pretty "tired".

The later PF models did I believe have the new style emblem from the factory.
I'd be amazed if you could find an old style one now, let alone in any decent condition.

Not sure about that Andrew. I've seen the old style logo on early FL cars in photos.
My 2001 also has the old logo in the steering wheel.

In fact, I would appeal to someone with an early FL who may appreciate switching to the newer logo!

You are probably right, I was pretty sure the badging change didn't coincide with the Facelift, just seems like I got it the wrong way round!

Using up a stockpile I expect, instead of saving them for people like Heksi... No forethought for owners 20 years down the line!!

Good luck finding new one, it has not been stocked by Audi since 2001. For the used one it's probably best to look for somebody breaking old S8 on e-bay and asking them if they have the right badge for sale.

Also would like to mention that 2ZZ is not what determines old/new part, its just a colour code for chrome which applies to both new and old style. The difference is in A, old style is 4D0853735 without A.

What about something very similar if you can't source the S8 one, and a little bit of work with a dremmel (or local jeweller). There are the old style S6 emblems available on eBay for 39 euro:

Plain one here with no model badging:
It's in North Carolina, so you'll have to enquire about freight
