    Can anyone tell me what's the best tool to use to reach and remove the 6 fasteners on the scoop to be able to remove it without damaging any paintwork?

    I think it's just a pull job but William will be along shortly ... I knows he's done it

    You only need two tools in life WD40 and Duct Tape. If it doesn't move and should use WD40 and if it moves and shouldn't use Duct Tape.

    With the F56 your best to push the scoop out from underneath after you've removed the screw

    Well it's fitted and looks great. Pictures tomorrow after a wash before going to meet the Germans.
