S5 moldings not S4, S5 are stuck on there by nipples on the backs of the pieces stuck into the body....the S4 ones are glued on.

Body shops have a tool for it. It's like a putty knife only it has a modified V shape cut into it. You slide it around the clips and it releases them.

Shouldn't be too hard to locate one.
