That trim piece is clipped into the fender. You will need a plastic trim removal tool to remove it. It takes some effort to get under and around it. I highly recommend using auto body tape around the perimeter of the part to prevent scratching the paint while doing so. I found starting from the rear end of the piece is the best approach. You can slowly work your way around it until you can lift it out.

Oh sorry about that. I haven’t seen many places with just the sticker, just this place. fender trim stickers. I have no idea on the quality or durability of these though. To remove you’d likely need to try to get under the sticker with a small trim tool, maybe warm it up with a heat gun on its lowest setting to loosen the adhesive. Then clean with some isopropyl alcohol.

IMHO I would just replace the whole piece, but I’m ocd with these things though.
