Ive taken mine out loads of times mate and sadly i havent found a way to do it that doesnt make you cringe hoping the panel wont snap.

The best way to do it imo is to try and make the clips snap, levering them out with a screwdriver or something similar. Theyre only 9p each so its much easier just fitting new ones of them.

^^ agreed. i tried using some long nose pliers. you can get the one out nearest the middle of the bumper but on the wing side there are two and you cant get to the bottom one with anything.

snap them off and get some more
