Bearing in mind that I've never done this - I'd go to my Nissan dealer and buy new vinyl. I'd then cut along the edges very gently with a razor knife just to cut the paint/clearcoat, then peel the plastic off and reapply to the exact place from which the old was removed. After all, there are lines there because of the sticker. Seems to me a line is a line.

Of course that's all very easy to say since I've never had that problem.

The idea of painting over it strikes me as a bit crazy, since it's there to protect the paint. Repainting would seem to defeat that purpose.
