Shawn,

Are you trying to restore a vintage racing Audi or recreate the colors well
enough to look good on SPEEDTV when they film the next rallycross?  If
you're leaning more toward the latter I can tell you what colors to use.

Go to any place selling Rustoleum spray cans and get a couple of each of the
following:
    -Chinese Red
    -Machinery Gray
    -Chocolate Brown

When viewed on the car, they're not exact copies of Audi's sport colors.
When viewed later, in pictures or on video, they match perfectly!

HTH,
Mark
