I still think that putting them on or in a trailer is the best way to go (IN is ideal). Then, there's no worries about paint scratching magnets, painters tape gone wild, misinterpretation of signage, or running into the wrong LE on a bad day and getting into trouble.

Bad choice of words on my part. From what I gather, "painted" in that CVC section has been more broadly
interpreted to cover markings too, regardless of whether they are applied with paint, decals or felt tip marker. Bottom line is your vehicle cannot resemble a LE vehicle in any way and it's stood up in the courts.
And trailering your car does not absolutely protect you from overzelous LE. I know of a couple who were jammed up for over 2 hours by a certain CHP officer about their marked CHP Mustang that was being lawfully trailered at the time.
