Default don't you think I've tried

its painted on and all body shops have said the same thing... that if they sand it off it most likely will leave a shadow underneath due. You prob haven't been around long enough but I complain about it constantly

Default That was the deal breaker for an A4 I was looking at last summer

it was silver w/ a red pin stripe. I told them to remove it and they referred me to a body shop that would sand it off and buff it out for $200 at my cost. Bunch of bs, they wern't willing to cut the price by $200 to cover that expense so I walked.
