Default Audi uses a special paint that alters the atomic structure of the paint at 25K miles...

... its no problem. I just did mine at 30K. Check the archives and Tech and just be patient when you did it so that you don't scratch anything.

Default Nope. Just use some IMG and Blitz after removal, you should

be good to go. Did on my brilliant black w/ 35k miles and 3 years; looks much better, IMHO.
