Are you trying to replace the turn signal light? Because that you can do from the engine bay.. About removing the part, not sure, but I'll take a look today and see if I can figure it out.

It is done from the engine bay. Crack open the owner's manual if you're not sure how to do it.
If you're replacing the bulbs, make sure they are inserted in the correct way. I first put on one of my silver bulbs incorrectly and had to rotate it 180 degrees.

I was talking about moving the whole thing, so i can paint it. It looks like it pops out, but not sure if i want to pull something and end up breaking it.

Searching in NAM almost always pays off. In this case, you might want to take a look at:
