fiberglass R34 front bumper removal

Got a question for y'all. I got my R34 kit installed and the shop that did the work jacked up my projectors, so now I'm goin back to cleared OEM's. Now I need your help. How difficult is it to remove an aftermarket bumper? I used to take of my OEM one all the time, but on this I'm just scared cuz I don't want to crack it. Is the OEM one the same as my fiberglass bumper or do I need to do something different to prevent cracking?

Ok so going with that, and pardon my ignorance, OEM and R34 both = Fiberglass? I just wanna make sure I'm not gonna pull with as much force as I do for the OEM and crack it.
