Unscrew it... I think it's a 22 mm... but be SUPER careful doing it and wait for the car to SUPER cool down, as many people have stripped that baby out trying to remove it.
I'm doing the same with my GReddy panel.... sick of cleaning and polishing it all the time... I'm also going to do a bunch of other stuff while I'm at it... Trying to Black out my engine bay...

haha, thats funny, I'm planning on painting mine as well. Not really sure what the steps would be on how to do it though. Does it require sanding, or can I just paint over it? All info is greatly appreciated, unless its retarded info. lol

Why would you need a tool to remove it? It just unscrews...
Painting the panel could be done by wetsanding it and priming/spraying... but powdercoating is Much Much more resilient and effective, plus is better for anything exposed to any possible heat. I'm going to powdercoat a couple pieces in my bay, to get them up and colormatched and clean...

Anything I can.... Strut Bar, Intake, Headers-if possible, oil cap, battery tiedown, and a few more additions that will be powdercoated to match later... Tanks, "Other" piping, and some detail pieces... I want a really clean engine bay...
