first off jack the car up so you have access to the bottom screws (good idea to use jack stands)

now is the hard part there is double sided tape to hold the lip on i used my hands and pryed it off (you could use a flat-head screwdrive wrapped in a cloth) be carefull not to bend or brack the lip you might have to use some force to get it off
