When I debadged my TL (silver color) it had that outline too. Most of it came off when I used rubbing compound on it. There was still a very faint outline after that. My paint guy then wetsanded it and buffed it with a orbital buffer and threw some wax on there, and it looked perfect. Again that was on a silver car which is a little more "forgiving" than a black car. Hope this helps.

Seriously? Wow, there's nothing I like better than a clean, uncluttered behind.
Of course, I'm not badge-conscious (or I'd be driving a Mercedes)
and the fact that is doesn't indicate which engine I have makes
the car a bit of a sleeper.
I actually can't stand badges... this doesn't look good?
