Slanted A8L symbol on tailgate
 
Anybody have an issue with their A8L symbol on the tailgate being slanted/crooked?

I sent pic of it to service advisor and he said it won't be covered under warranty, only if it's within first 6 months of new car purchase.

Shouldn't it be covered under the full factory warranty?

That's BS. Original warranty should cover any cosmetic defects. The CPO or
 
Audi Assured Warranty wouldn't. My dealer replaced a tiptronic button that had some paint peeling off.

So I meant to write trunk lid, though I wouldn't mind having a A8 wagon...

that does look nice. Dental floss work well?

Yep
 
Add a hair dryer to get some heat to it. After getting the letters off, I ended up using my thumb to roll the glue off as if it was rubber cement, a really tough rubber cement. There are many posts around about how to debadge.

That would be an interesting vehicle.
