    CAREFULLY cut straight along the top with a stanley knife or something. Should then be able to pull it back & off.

    i can get mine off with brute force alot of shouting a swearing and tug at it and eventually you'll end up on your face with the cover in your hand then you can just push it back on if you want

    i think they're glued on so u usually have to cut it. The original one looks tacky anyway, a nice chrome/alloy makes a huge difference
