lol, just unscrew the nut and it will come off. It's there so you don't put the stock rears on the fronts.

do not listen to other members about taking off the screws. they are there to stabilize your front rotors. Taking these screws off will result in braking failure.
AGAIN, FOR YOUR OWN SAFETY DO NOT TAKE THESE SCREWS OFF.
