Remove front badge

[theaxe]

Looking to debadge my newly acquired RS4. I'm pretty happy with the wd40 & dental floss method for the side and rear badges but what about the one on the front grille? How do I remove that one?

Thanks!

Do you really want to do the front? The only reason I say that is won't you have the flat 'four circles' in the plastic on the grill left plus I think there will maybe some locations slots left where the badge was although I'm not 100% sure on the last bit.

If you want to make it a bit more stealth then how about just making them the same colour black as your grill? Just a thought.

Isn't he just talking about the RS4 badge? Not the rings????


If so it just pops off the grill very easily I believe.

Yeah, just the 'RS4' bit not the rings. Thanks Bobjebb, I'll give it a tug tomorrow...

Aaah, sorry - I'll get me coat

A black RS4 with Black optics and completley de badged would look nice. Sorry not sure how the front comes off.

Have done just that, removed the badges completely. Make sure you heat them softly with a hair drier, its aids the removal process.

The front badge just pulls off with a little manouvering in each direction.

The 4 rings in the grill is a bit more difficult, however I have just had mine painted and put back on, looks very NICE!

Will post pics later.

Could you tell me why you like pulling off the badges on your car? Can't understand it myself.

My two penneth FWIW.....

When mine is delivered it will be completely devoid of all RS4 badges. This is purely because the nature of my work occasionally takes me to some not so desirable locations and I want to attract as little attention as possible - hence I have opted for one of the more subtle colours when there are others I may have preferred.

I know there are people out there who will immediately recognise the car and it may be niaive to think de-badging will make any difference but, like I say, I am trying to be subtle.

Personal preference really, I like the whole Q-Car thing.

Or look at it the other way, what's the point of having badges on your car? Basically it's so that other people know what it is (in the case of the audi rings) and how much you paid for it (in the case of the model designation). I have nothing against this, it's understandable to want to take pride in such a nice car but it's not for me.


PS. I hope this doesn't sound like I'm suggesting people with the badges are bragging, just trying to explain my preference...

Agreed.
