It is aluminum, so it can bend with no problem, just be gentle when you bend it, bend it a bit, try take it out, and to the same until it gets out.

I do not know any other trick... Oh is it unhook from the srew on the right of the shield (when you are standing in front of the car, your right).

Hope you are able to get it out.
