Default it has two effects, one is it looks more stealth (more like a A4), but it makes it look like an A4
same type of effect as debadging the car, makes it look smoother but also you loose the s4 "wow" effect.

Did the paint shop have difficulty matching the paint?

Nope - hit it dead on with no tinting required.
