Remove and reinstall GT2 wing DIY?

I need to remove the wing on my GT2 so the wrappers can properly wrap the bottom. I searched this site and Google w no luck. Just trying not to break anything... Thanks all!

There is a cover on the front side of the uprights @ air intake. Use a plastic wedge to carefully pry the cap off. The wing blade allen head screws are under the cap.
