Removing lower side grille trim help

I am trying to figure out how to remove the L-shaped lower grille trims (the run along the top and side of the lower side grilles). It looks like they are held in with tabs, but no visible clips or screws. Any ideas?

I think the front bumper might have to come off to access the mounts from behind. I am not sure though, but have been looking into it as I want to change mine to carbon fiber and also add the piece below it that you have in carbon fiber. (By the way, was that an OEM piece or aftermarket? If aftermarket, from where did you get it?)

Mode Carbon makes them. Before I bought it I asked if installing the puece requires removing the bumper, and they told me they pop right off. Honestly, I don't see where the OEM pieces come off.

Anyone else have any ideas? Hoping to get this done before PPF is applied this week.

I am pretty sure you will need to remove the front bumper
