I also have a difference in the sound the doors make when being closed. Mine was brand new when purchased. Drivers door closes solid. But, the passenger door makes like a window rattle noise when being closed. I asked the dealer about this shortly after acceptiing delivery and was told that the noise is "normal" and caused by the Club door. I was in disbelief and asked to look at other brand new cars on their lot and they were happy to assist. And to my amazement; all the brand new cars on the lot made the same window rattle noise when closing the passenger door. I must have checked at least 4 other cars on their lot.
Window rattle noise, that is exactly what I mean, and you are saying this is normal on a car that cost 36,000 EUR?

No it isn't actually, even though it looks like it 
I am in South Jersey as well, but I have VA plates (Active Duty Military). The tint is 18% on all the windows except the windshield and sunroof. Where abouts in South Jersey are you?

Just use Glide dental floss. Get under a corner and work the letters up.
Better yet, have the dealer do it. Tell them, thanks, but no thanks...unless they want to pay you for their advertising.
Then, if the paint is affected in any way, it's their tab to fix it.

Thanks for the complements everybody 
I finally get to post a picture of my Clubman here after one year of research. At one time I had six configurations on a spreadsheet. I drew inspiration from the many great looking Clubmans here and in the Gallery.
