Don't use too much force or the latches will break. Once you get if off the housing, lift the cover out of the housing then remove the ring. The ring is very, very easy to remove. Bend the latches and remove it.
Install the new ring and reverse the process to reinstall the cover. Make sure the latches inside the cover fit properly into the grooves.
Good luck and please share pics!

With your detailed instructions, I did it tonight. I was kind of hesitant at first cuz I didn't want to break things, but things went smoothly. I also replaced the front grille with titanium grille. They look pretty cool. Slowly but surely, this X5 is becoming mine. I'll get some pics this wknd. Thanks y'all.
It's "bumper protection DIY" tomorrow nite.
