Painting S4 calipers...where to get the "PORSCHE" script?

After painting the S4 calipers, where would I be able to source the "PORSCHE" script that looks like painted on before?
Is there a stencil that can be purchased?
Thanks.

The guys at rennsport were selling them at Hershey. These are the same ones that make the aluminum floorboards.

If you actually have "s4" calipers, you do not need stickers. the Porsche script is raised, so after you paint them simply sand the paint of the raised letters and you are done. You can also paint the raised letters a contrasting colour easily. Just did the ones on my 89 S4, it was a snap.

some of the guys sell a negative porsche vinyl script for the calipers. you use it as a mask for painting, then remove it. i doubt vinyl stickers would last too long on a hard driven car
