But Audi stopped production of the RS4 mats over 2 years ago, so given that they now are getting NO income from the sale of RS4 mats it makes perfect sense (to me at least) to get some licencing income from a reputable mat manufacturer.

Agreed; I would even pay some more than what the 'My Car Mats' were originally priced at to give Audi some licensing revenue.

I don't see why MyCarMats or anyone else should profit from a brand they don't own even if it is at the expense of us the final user. There would he no business landscape if it was that easy

Just FYI my understanding is that the logo badges were bought from Audi directly by mycarmats with full disclosure.

I suspect it didn't help by me highlighting the product on a high profile RS web site tbh

[P_G]

That's even more laughable if correct. Audi sell the badges with full disclosure.... WTF did they think they were going to do with them at the time! Then find out and given them a bollocking!

What a joke.

Maybe, somehow I suspect that's not the case though; doesn't make any sense if it was.

Anyhow I agree there should be an Audi-endorsed aftermarket solution. Heck, I bought a set of MyCarMats myself so I'm not having a go, I just believe the brand owner should be compensated. If that was the case in this instance then no foul, I'm with the rest of you.

Had an in depth conversation with the owner of the company, prior to using them, discussing the scenario that has evolved. He was quite clear on how he was operating.

Just come across this thread, I need some of these. Are there any others interested? maybe worth getting another group buy running?

[Tile Diver]

Yep, I'd be after some for sure, however I'm not even sure you can still get OEM ones anymore.

[RS4ABM]

To be honest there are plenty available on ebay that don't look too bad!

The ones on eBay are very good quality, worth buying IMO.

I just ordered a set from the ebay link above, will let you know what they are like. Says they will be delivered next week tuesday and I opted for black stitching

[MikeFish]

I have a set of those and for the money they are very good. The logos are stitched on rather than embroidered on though. I have a much more expensive set (embroidered) but they lasted a month or 2 before wearing through. I've never worn through any mats before this, ever! The cheaper eBay ones I had in for a year with no wear at all.
