Need R8 Help (Owners or Shops)

I am looking to upgrade the rear brakes on my S4. I was thinking about using the rear brakes from an R8. Can someone post a picture of the R8 rear brakes. With the wheels off would be nice but pics with them on are fine too.


Thanks in advance,
Paul

Not worth it. Just do the light weight rotors.

It is really more for looks than for function. I already have been working with another shop that makes great parts for the 4.2 cars (JH Motorsports) and we have put together a kit to use their lightweight rotors for the C5 RS6. This will give me a 335mm rear rotor.

I am looking for a better looking caliper though. I am mainly going for looks over performance. However, the added heat capacity couldn't hurt either.

I appreciate the response though.
