Removing Fender Drains
I own a 2001 A8L and I removed the fender well drains about 2 yars ago. This actually lets more of the water drain out of the area around the shock towers, with litle chance to clog. When inserted the rubber creates a lip on the inside that holds more water in the area they drain. I also clipped the tips off the condenser drains located behind the console panels and have not had a problem with them clogging.

try using a pair of hemostats (medical claps) to pull the rubber back thru, or just leave it.
i dont think it will really hurt to have it completely out. I snipped the ends off mine cus they were completely gunked up and crusty. havent had a problem since (knock on burlwood...hehe)
