Unhappy Rubber Bumper Cover Removal on '08 STi's

Does anyone know how to remove the rubber bumper cover that comes as an option on '08 & up STi's?
I'm assuming you just apply a lot of heat and use a knife.. but I am afraid of scratching and damaging the paint.
Did anyone ever remove theirs?

its actually really useful in my opinion. It helps prevent scratches when your loading/removing stuff out of the hatch. if you want its just held on by double sided tape. Apply some heat with a heat gun or a blow dryer and pull up lightly while trying to cut the tape betweent he bumper cover and bumper
