Pry the inside of the two pieces until it pops out about 1/4" then you can just pull the whole two piece assembly out with your fingers.

I love when you ask questions they tell you to search, so when you search and find dead links no one helps you?

Sorry guys but the pics were hosted on Skidazzle's personal home page almost 3½ years ago. Once that homepage went away, the pics are no longer accessable.

BTW, this was once a sticky then un-stuck. My guess would be because the pics went away.

Below is a brief DIY with pictures for removing the front bumper (part of a Clear Corners Installation Guide). Maybe someone can use this guide, take better pictures of the process and do a new write up. It's actually a pretty quick process (~10 minutes max) once you've done it a couple of times.

well i did it. and for those who are wondering if its possible with out the use of jacks, it deffinately is. i did a search on wether it was safe or not to use the jack for the spare tire and for the most part it was highly not reccomended. well, i did it anyways. i gotta say though that with out two jacks i had to do one side at a time and the total time it took me to take off the bumper was almost TWO HOURS!!!!! two hours just so it could take me two minutes to put on my jdm sidemarkers. >.< well at least i got to clean my nismo filter at the same time.....

For my side markers I didnt remove the wheels or the bumper, I did have to pull out the passenger side of the bumper a bit, due to the fluid tank there..
