No need for a screw driver, just grab from both sides or one doesn't matter, they pop right off. No major strength needed. I just took mine off. Completely different look, But I'm getting mine powder coated.

So it's not held on from the back?! I tried just pulling it wouldn't budge, I'm guessing I was just too afraid to break it and too gentle, I will try again tomorrow!! Is this the same for front bowtie? Does that just pull off as well or it there a bolt?

Yeah just grab and pull. There are little clips that slide and hold it in place.

I was gentle on the first one of mine because I thought it would be very easy to break. The other three took me about 15 seconds total.

Front bowtie is held on the grille with four clips. you'd need to some how get behind the grille and push them out.

When you take off the first one, you'll see the groove the ring fits into.

Yeah, just pull on it. They aren't going to break. They are hubcaps, so they need to be a little tight so they don't fly off when you are driving. Yank, and done!
