Default Sale Panel Removeal?

I would like to remove the top cover of the sale panel if it's possible. If so, how do you take it off? Is it held on by some king of clips or is it screwed on? Thanks.

So could I peel if off and re-glue it or would I risk breaking it?

There is no 'risk' of breaking, I guarantee it'll be broken and ripped apart.

See this thread all about it here:

Yea even with a heat gun there's a very very high risk of cracking and tearing it up. If u take it super slow it might not be unfixable ... But I wouldn't put my money on it

Thanks, that is exactly what I was looking for but sucks that you have to destroy it to take it off. Any idea where I could find a new one to buy?

Well cracks are okay for me, as long as it's in one piece that is fine. I plan on wrapping it in carbon fiber so I want to reuse the old one if possible.
