-The previous owner has tried to fix some paint scratches with the BMW touch-up spray, and failed miserably. As you can see on the picture it's a mess, and it hasn't helped with the scratch whatsoever. My question then is; would it be possible to sandpaper the spray paint down to the old paint, and then 'start over' with the scratch repair to make it less obvious?

-Whilst removing the carpet in my car I found that the left footwell was soaked. After further research upon common repairs for this I've checked the sunroof drain without results, and although I did clean out the "elephants nose" or what you call it, I read that it would cause leaks in both sides of the car, so I ruled that one out. I then read that there could be rust around the rubber thingy by the bulkhead, but as you can see on the picture, it's perfectly rust-free. I also checked the color of the moisture in the carpets, and it's scent and color-free, so I dont think it's coolant. I'm running out of ideas, so I'd like other opinions.

-This plastic thingy is what the black numberplate holder is screwed onto at the top. As you can see there is rust on the boot-side, so I'd like to remove it for further repair, but I have no clue on how to do this?

-I dont know if you're able to spot it, but it's dripping blue coolant from the white pipe in the middle. Is this 'normal' ? Should I just gaffa it ?
Sorry for the looong post, but I didn't feel like spamming the forum with 4+ threads
Cheers mates.
