Using what from the inside or the outside?

Hairdryer hitting it from the outside
Pry tool just a little bit from the inside at first (kind of tough to get around the camera), and the once the reflector was clearly starting to peel off more easily, I would use the pry tool from the outside to simply separate the reflector from the bumper by sliding it between the two, separating the glue.

At this point you probably could use your hands to press the reflector inwards to separate it but I didn't like how the bumper was deflecting (although it was probably harmless).

Oh and HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.

USE WORK GLOVES to do this job (i think some others have mentioned this is important as well). They allow you to work with the hair dryer still running. It did get very warm, but it allowed me to work through the heat of the hairdryer. If you try to do this without gloves, your hands are going to burn!

I have a pair similar to this that I use to do random jobs around the house.
