Reproducing the font and lettering? No problem (well may need a little help from my scan guy Rob E). As far as gluing it, I suppose epoxy with good temperature properties could work. So are you looking for letters that would sit flush inside the recess be flush with the cover or sit up a little proud of the surrounding surface?
The Garage9 ones (in solid red) look like the ones I used on my '90 S4's valve covers. They turned the covers (one of which is shown in post #2 above) to what's below. Quite nice, IMHO.
The covers (as well as all the other powder coated stuff shown in that thread) look pretty much the same today — eight years later — as they did in those photos.
Those do look great Ed. I was trying to do some letters in a different color (blue) for my 89 S4 cam covers, and planned to cut them on a laser table here at work. Unfortunately after Kevin (to the 2nd power) in ATL sent me a file with the correct font, I wasn't able to load it into the computer as it violated our cyber security policy. I'd still love a set exactly like those, but in a bright blue.
