They're usually held on by double sided tape. They should be pretty easy to pry off without damaging anything, but you'll need some stuff to get off the tape (like Goo-B-Gone).

check the front one for screws to hold it in the back. the accent has 2 holes on each side which can be fitted with very small screws to lock it in place in case the double-sided tape fails at some point. just use your fingers to feel around behind it.

As cited the front "rotary accent" has a screw and tape, whereas the rear is just tape-affixed. My rear one popped off recently (fortunately in the garage), even tho' I used iso-alchohol prep and was careful not to touch the tape. I'll get some stronger 3M double stick tape now.

There are some good aluminum replicas a lot cheaper on eBay. I bought a front one and it looks identical.
