War cry for debadgers: "Badges? We don't need no stinking badges!"

Removing the supercharged badges should reduce drag on the side right? HAHA. I will be super fast than.

Prem+ Debadging
I used floss on my Prem+. Did not have a 2.0T to remove. Found the glue used on this model much more robust than on my '06. Had to patiently use toothpicks and my finger nails to get the glue off. Finished with goo gone and a little speed shine.

I don't think a car would (or should) state one's financial position in society. I see many who buy expensive cars and still live in affordable homes because that is where they like to spend their money on. Many drive nicer cars ($35-40K) and live in apartments where the lease and rental payments are the same for both. I guess there is nothing wrong with that either.
I debadged the "V8" in my S5 and thinking of doing the same with the "V8T" on the S6 for a cleaner look but will leave the S6 badge in the rear.

In fact, when I mentioned to a co-worker about the type of car I was thinking of buying you wouldn't believe the amount of ridicule and consternation that followed after the discussion. Also, we have some very nosy neighbors who constantly play a game of one upmanhip on who has the better house, apartment, car, clothes, etc.
So to avoid all that I like to be a little bit more under the radar on this kind of stuff.

I think if you live in major metropolitan cities you will find that there are a higher concentration of enthusiasts and therefore knowledgeable consumers randomly walking the streets.

I debadge all my Audis, but with A6 I LOVE the supercharged 
I actually removed the A6 and 3.0T from the back but I left quattro and I added Supercharged badge instead of A6..
I just feel they really make the car look sportier and give it that supercharged identity.

Also here is another post on how to debadge that I posted to last year (literally :P) -> https://www.audiworld.com/forums/sho....php?t=2827433
In that thread I link to this post on detailers domain about debadging an S4's "V6T" side badge and installing a "Supercharged" badge" -> https://detailersdomain.com/12-Audi-...ion_b_320.html
