Removing the nose cone:
I started on the passengers side just below the hood line where the straight horizontal chrome trim comes to a point with the oval shaped chrome trim. I used a cloth covered putty knife to gently pry the nose cone away from it's attachment point. There are 5 attachment points across the front and 1 on each lower side (7 total). There are an additional 6 tabs along the bottom which have barbs on them. Once you get the nose cone out enough to grab onto you can use your hands to free it from all of the attachment points. I advise being gentle, however Tesla has removed my nose cone twice and they literally grabbed the corner with their bare hands and pulled the piece right off. Personally, I like the slow hand approach.
