Does anyone know how to remove the rear portion of the rear fender flares without breaking them?

I havent seen how they come off so dont take this as the gospel, but as far as most vehicles with flares, you just pull them off and the plastic clips break. The key is to not bend or flex the flare too much and you can simply replace the clips. If the flare breaks or splits then you have to get new ones, of course.

Thanks. I have to replace the front portion of the rear flares already (the part of the flare that's on the rear door) and while they were off I figured I'd pull the rear portion too so I can start coming up with ideas for rear tube fenders.

I can't remember exactly how I did it it's been awhile but I got mine off and back on without breaking anything. I don't remember it being hard I just took my time and pried carefully.
