So whilst my MINI has had the mechanical side of things well looked after, cosmetically, not so much. Partly due to not wanting to pay someone to do what i regard as simple jobs, but not having the time (or really the knowledge) to do them myself!

So the Plastic panel over the C-pillar needs to be replaced. I am told that it just clips off, is it as simple as that? Do any other pieces of trim need to be removed?

The rear fog / reversing light (mounted on the rear bumper) has some water in it. Will this just pop out or does the bumper need to come off or something silly like that?

Both front and rear badges have lost the black MINI emblem, but the metallic "wings" are still present. Will i be able to remove this with the help of a hair dryer? Or is there another way to get them off?

Regards,
James
