A8 to S8 brake conversion?
I am looking to upgrade my 98' A8 brakes and I was thinking that a nice pair of S8 (4.2) or (v-10) brakes would be nice, not to mention I would gain the cool S8 on the caliper. Any suggestions on how I could accomplish this...is it an easy swap or is major mods required as with the Porsche Big Brake upgrade? Any info would help....thanks!

Easier said than done.
In addition to the <a href="https://forums.audiworld.com/a8/msgs/118476.phtml">Expensive Project in the Front</a>, you'd also need to upgrade the rear brakes to maintain brake bias.
