Question 2018 SL - removal of Rocker Panel Guard - not moulding

Hello folks, I'm removing a Rocker Panel Guard (Left Side) and in need of assistance - any help is appreciated.
See the attached Nissan diagram for the Rocker Panel Guard (Left) - items highlighted in yellow represent clips and screws I've removed. I'm stumped as to what else needs removal - as the Rocker Panel Guard is being held by something I just can't see. Note: 76DBBE represent clips removed - there are 4 of them. Given this info, do I simply need to pry the Rocker Panel Guard off the body? Thanks in advance.

Nope - sounds like you're referring to a rocker panel "moulding"? I know those have 3M adhesive. Mines is a rocker panel guard which doesn't use adhesive - to my knowledge.
Thanks for responding.

I'd still try a hairdryer at medium settings to see if it will pull off with mild pressure. Care though to avoid warping
