I want to debadge my A6. I want to take off the A6 and 2.7T Quattro badges. I'm leaving the rings on the trunk lid. I wanted to make sure before doing anything, are there little posts that go into the metal. I wouldnt want to have to take it to a shop to get those welded over and respraying my trunk. Anyone know for sure? They seem like just regular badges, but I wana be 100% sure before goin into it.

 

On my a4, all badges (a4, 1.8t) were glued... so i just used a hair dryer and a goo gone, took really about 10 minutes.. search on forums. Udachi

 

Why not check on the INSIDE of your trunk lid for any pins coming through?
( May have to pop off a trim panel first )

 

you can run some fishing line behind it as well.

 

thats what i thought too. theyre too small to have the pins. floss, fishing line, goo-gone all that works. spasibo

 

So you took them off already???

 

If so its pics time please?

I've been debating doing this and would like to see how it looks on a smilar A6

 

theyre not off right now. i'll be removing them within the week. if im not too dead tired from work(posting at work right now) then i'll come home and get the floss out and some googone and i'll def snap some photos for ya guys and post them up asap

 

votblindub, it really took me (and my friends) 10 minutes of work. All you do is :
1. Heat that place up with a hair dryer
2. Apply some Goo Gone and continue heating up for about 10-15 seconds more
3. Then try taking them off with a fishing string
4. You will have some glue stuff left on their places. Get some Goo Gone on that place and then wash it.
P.S. I think all those badges made plastic, not a metal.

 

It's done. Pics posted here----> https://www.audiforums.com/m_527866/.../tm.htm#527866 Tell me what you think? I think it looks good. I'm taking a minimalist approach here.
