one thing i forgot to ask... the towing rope thingy, when it's being pulled, does it put any pressure on the back bumper (ie, is it touching the bumper) because when it gets towed by a truck, the height of the rinch may put too much pressure on the buper and crack/break it.
if you get what i mean. lol

done this a couple of times just heat them up gently with a hairdryer then pick at the corner and peel off gently if they are quite new or you are lucky they will peel straight off then just give it a quick polish if they have gone quite hard they may leave the sticky residue just rub at it dry and keep at it will all come off then a quick polish looks a million times better too

these are still a bit hard into and out of potholes but then it is dropped about 70mm atm lol.
speaking of potholes, am gutted as today i hit a really deep one and the front bumper bottomed out and has cracked not a happy bunny.
i can fix buckled wheels if you came to the garage.....£60 to repair it (not my price, fixed price at the garage)
