Default De-Badging '04 A8L trunk lid

I am wondering whether it would be possible to remove all badges except the Audi rings. Has anybody accomplished this without paint damage?
If so a description of the technique would be much appreciated.

TIA

I think that's a good look on the A8. Very well done.

I'm definitely de-badging my A8 whenever I get one. Except the S8 emblem :-)

It's a great look and only works on a handful of cars.
