Carefully just pull them off. (If you can get them off w/o cracking them you'd be ably to ebay them.) They're double side taped on/in.

well got the carbon fiber ones in however it is so cold out the plastic old ones were very brittle and i broke both of them getting them off..but i dont really care the stock ones are cheap and ugly anyway ..the new ones look really cool especially with the black front fairing.

i recommend als carbon fiber the stuff is top notch

I've NEVER been able to get the stock ones off intact. I suspect when they are new, it may be possible. But once they've been on the bike a while, the plastic gets brittle and they always crack.
