How to remove hood chrome?

What's the best way to remove this trim on the rear of a hood? Thanks

 

Thanks Adam. I guess I'll work on it evenly from front and back sides in one direction..

 

a paint stick works good with a plastic hammer

Go slow and easy, start at one end and tap your way to the other.

 

so this begs the question...how do you get it to go back on?

 

I use a little grease or Vaseline on both the hood lip and the trim if I can, and tap it nice and easy back on (with plastic hammer or rubber). I mark the center of the trim with tape so I can be sure it is centered going back on. Another set of hands to help hold it helps!

I have a better question. How do you get it back on after the car is painted without gouging the paint/clearcoat? I never put mine back on because of that fear.

 

There's only a couple crimped areas / spots that actually hold that trim in place.
