The M-sport has a fog light in the grill and a radiator behind that, it is impossible to get ones hand in the let alone a blow dryer to heat up the tape. I'm thinking you would gave to go in through the wheel well, anyone attempt with pics?

So I tried installing the IND painted front reflectors this weekend, note I have the ones with the cameras built in, and I couldn't do it. I removed the 3 bolts from the lower 1/3 part of the hub, the others around the top and back seemed to plastic rivets. I could not peel the hub liner back far enough to get into the inside of the fender. I didn't want to snap the fender flare and I feared that would happen. Do I have to take the wheel off and remove the hub liner to access the reflector? Also am I able to pop out the plastic rivets around the hub without damaging them to the point they won't go back in?
