Exhaust bezel

Does anyone know how this damned thing comes off. Removed two bolts but there are five clips holding it in place. No access to top clip that I can find. And I did use search, only the same question and no answers. Thanks

Thanks but that’s the whole facia. I’m trying to remove the exhaust surround and replace it with CF one. Maybe it just pulls off with lots of pressure but I was hoping for more info.

Once you remove the screws, depress the clips and pull... Here’s vid showing the location of the clips that might help.

Edit: There are also clips on the top that the vid doesn’t show. This pic will show their placement:

Actually, removing the bezel is a lot easier. I’ve dropped the bumper when installing a cat-back system. While it was not difficult, it’s still a lot more involved than removing two screws and prying off a bezel. Be careful not to break the vent clips...
