If they do it after you pay for the car, sure. Before you give them any money, it's their car to do as they see fit.

Then they're selling you an incorrect product.

That's for me, the buyer to decide. A pickup truck is also the incorrect product for me, because I don't want one. Someone else may not want a black car. We don't want stickers or badging on our cars. Others may want a black pickup truck and doesn't really care if it has a sticker on the back for whatever reason. All that is totally fine - it's our choice to buy something or not.

But it's certainly not vandalism for the dealer to do that to their own car any more than it is for me to put an "I love puppies" bumper sticker on my car and then sell it a week later.
