    Judging by the fact yours is a 2011 aswell as mine, you have to first unclip the top part then sway it left to right like a loose tooth to get it to come loose, it's a good thing you bought the trim removal tools because the heater surround facia is a right !Removed! to come out! Helps using like 4 facia removing tools at once! :P

    I got 2 sets lol,the 2 sides pops open so you can see the square clip in the middle but that won't move.

    I see a lot of the black facelift ones on ebay but not the pre-facelift,don't people like the black heater surround on the facelift,got to say it does get dusty/finger prints very easy.
