is this for paint? They are just held on with 3m double sided tape. Use a flat, thin scraper tool or similar and carefully slide it under the triangle piece without scratching the paint and when you get to the end, carefully pry the piece off as it should be easy at this point and only have a little bit holding it. Use an adhesive remover liquid to help if necessary.

and remember, the sail panel extends under the triangular trim piece, so when you put a screwdriver, etc. under the trim, make sure your are prying between the trim and the sail panel. I accidentally got under the sail panel when removing my first one and had to do a little bondo fix because I cracked the sail panel. The best thing to do is heat it up nice and hot with a blow dryer and just lift from the bottom of the triangular piece and it should peel off with enough force.
