Default Brake dust shield

Does anybody know if there are stainless steel brake dust shields available for a 2014 Q5?
The stock aluminum shields are starting to discolor and it drives me crazy!

I've never heard of such a thing. Have you seen them?

What about having fresh OE parts zinc coated? That may achieve a result satisfactory to you...

No idea what's involved with removing/replacement.

No, I haven't seen them, but thought that someone may make something since the brake dust appears to embed itself into the aluminum and is nearly impossible to remove.
