Tow hook cap removal trick??

Ladydirector

Hi everyone

Hope the Z’s are fuelling your summertime fun.

So I finally purchased the plate relocation kit for the front tow hook assembly..but can’t seem to get the plastic part off the tow hook.
It’s on there really tight and I’m scared to break off the surrounding plastic.

Anyone have any suggestions or tips?

Literally sooo frustrated with this thing.

Thanks so very much for any help
