If it's the Rigid bit on the top of the rear bumper you mean then I think it just hooks / clips in which im sure can be done without removal of bumper Thumbs Up

On the rigid part they just have a series of plastic lugs which hook into slots in the bumper.
Using a screwdriver to carefully prise up starting at a corner should do the trick Thumbs Up

Sorry haven't got any pics Whistle

It's a little while since mine was off and it was on my old bumper but if you were to look at the rigid plastic strip then I think there was three or four lugs on the front and the same on the other side closest to the tailgate.

I'm sure it just clips in and just needs a gentle lift with a screwdriver , you will get a feeling as to where the lugs are once you start trying to lift the trim.

as I recall, push it forward as you prise the rear.
