Hey, great video, I will be doing mostly all that same work soon on my 2006 R53. for the decals on the rear bumper, you can use "3M adhesive remover". I've got a container here, been using it on stickers and decals for more than 5 years and it removes everything and anything with no damage to the paint. I just brush it on, give it a few minutes then use a plastic scraper and scrape the decal off. I follow that with a wash of warm soapy water to get rid of any remaining adhesive remover solution.
@@jayjay6117 Thanks for tip, these decals are a bit weird, they have a sort of metal layer incorporated into them, which I think is what’s made it so difficult to get them off, that and they are flaking off with age. I’ll definitely bear that in mind for the future though, as that was absolutely mind destroying.
Thank you for the comments, It’s very strange that plate. Mainly because it hasn’t been specced with a Sat Nav. Maybe it’s a stash area 😂 Might have to get a torch in there and have a good look.
Mini R52 content. Yes please 🙏
@@jameshalls That is next, however it’s a mixture of emotions that one. But definitely stay tuned. I’m just trying to find a bit more out about it 👀
Top notch editorial👍👍🇬🇧🇬🇧
@@davidrix804 Thanks - Still trying to get my head around all that 😂👍
