Push up and then pry gently out it will come off.

 

Ok I got the emblem off and got it painted. Now I wanna take off the little square "quattro" emblem that's next to it, spray that black and fill in the letters with red. Does anybody know how to take that one off? I tried yesterday and couldnt figure it out.

 

Does anyone have a picture of the rear Audi symbol sprayed black? You'd have to get pretty creative protecting the paint... probably not worth it and dangerous.

 

^i DIY'd my rear TT emblem in anodized red. if i'm not too lazy i'll take a picture one of these days.

 

I think ryan has his rear emblem painted black.
