Quattro decals

I have added some "quattro" decals to the sides of my 8V RS3 and I know many of you may have had these fitted from factory or added them yourselves but I haven't seen a thread on them so thought I'd write something up...
Firstly, my car is panther black and I have silver trim - windows, mirrors and grill surround but the chin spoiler is black - so it's quite a subtle car with some silver highlights.
I decided on the quattro decals in silver and weighed up the original Audi ones vs after market but considering its not a cheap car I decided to spend big and get the OEM decals at $40 from a UK eBay seller. They came well packaged with original instructions, Audi alcohol wipes and supplementary guides.
Attached are some quick pictures, I'll take a full car shot in the morning as it's getting dark here.
Needless to say, clear instructions were provided with measurements and the transfers were top notch in quality. I applied them in ~10 mins, most of which was me checking my measurements and moving my positioning tape to get them "exactly right".
Instructions:
Drivers side:
Passenger side:
Passenger side 2:
I think they look subtle and add something "old school" to the modern car. Makes me want to say "fire up the quattro!"

I quite like them. My white RS3 has the black pack & these in black could just finish it off?. Thoughts please?.

Saw an RS3 on Youtube with this sticker on the lip of the lower part of its front bumper, mimicking the new style TTRS and RS3 position, looked quite good.
Apologies for the annoying music that accompanies this post

Liking the quattro decals... could anyone let me know which suppliers they got them from on eBay, or what the actual dimensions are for the OE decals? Cheers in advance!

but it was part of a larger order so it was worth it for me.
There's a chap on eBay selling them for just over a fiver I believe.

I used to love the decals on mine but now am unsure. Plenty of people think they look silly too :/

Thanks for the reply T-800!
Irfy - I think they look great, however, I wouldn't worry what others think - it's whether you like them or not that's important!
