Here's what you might try... find an A4 or A4, and see if the digit
"4" is of the same style & size as the digits in the chromed "5000"
emblem. If so, buy a 5000 chrome emblem, and the S4/A4 emblem, and
cut the "5" off, toss it, cut the "4" off, glue it to the "000", and
viola! You have an emblemAudi never even made...   

Happy Festivus,
Doug
