How to remove hood fins

Does anyone know how to remove original hood fins on 2014 ML350? I have a broken one and need to replace.

chrome ones are only inserts. Buy the one on ebay as it is exactly the same unless you can get the MB branded the same price.

I put the chrome hood vents on my ML350. You don't replace the black ones, you just put chrome covers over the black ones. It easy to do. The kit comes with alcohol to clean the black vents and glue to install the chrome ones over it.

How broken is it?...is it just a crack? If you get the chrome vent covers, maybe you can just stick them over the broken one.
They're just double-sided taped on.
Pay attention to the front vs back.....I don't think they're perfectly symmetrical.
