Anyone know how to remove interior door handle trim without hacking it apart?

Im trying to remove the interior door handle trim to wrap the brushed aluminum in carbon fiber because its scratched and the look drives me crazy! I have purchased this really cool carbon fiber wrap that doesnt look cheap and is very durable. I want to do my Kick plates as well.

At the bottom of the handle there is a small cutout. Use a flat tip screwdriver in there and pry out. Once you get that first clip free just pull.

Is each model different? I have a 2nd gen and to get the handle off you need a plastic bone to pry it off.
