Nearly impossible to do from the outside as you'll snap the plastic pins, remove inner plastic boot trim and push pins out if I recall correctly.

You need to take the bumper off to get to the fixings :roll:

I’ll take a photo of a rear bumper, showing the fixings , tomorrow.

The badges are fixed with ‘spring rings’ from behind,

So, you could ‘ping’ them off from the outside, the reattach them with ‘glue’, ‘no-nails’, tiger-seat, etc
Other products are available :lol:
