They are OEM on S8 and some A8Ls. Also lower braces too!

Default There are no retro-fit mounts or bars, no.
If you want them, you'd have to make it all yourself.

It's a wonderful addition to any A8, so it's not without merit.

Default There are no holes in the A8 to mount them to, tho.
You would have to lay out and drill mounting holes, then provide some kind of backing plate to give it all strength.

AFAIK you can use the ones from Audi, but you can't mount them.
