Default Badging/Debadging for G2 question??

Now that I've got the G2 on the car, had some fun over the weekend making an S4 owner wonder why he couldn't pull away from a 2.8. Other G2 owners, what are your thoughts, are you debadging completely? Just take off the 2.8? How about someone coming up with a G2 badge?

Default Scratching their heads as you disappear in the distance is good...

Yea, but how many S4 owners, or for that matter BMW owners have any idea what a G2 is anyway? They'd still be scratching their heads, but they'd be wondering what the hell a G2 is.

Default I took the PES decal, 1 1/4" x 8 1/2", and..

applied it to some 1 1/2" clear shipping tape. I then taped it above the rear view mirror, centered on the windshield. It is unobtrusive in the upper tint of the windshield, but still visible. Only have the front and rear Audi rings and the left and right jellybean logos on my black A4, debadged the rest and like the look.

How about leave the 2.8 and add two letters?: 2.8 SC
