Are you referencing the chrome trim around the speedo glass?

Not 100% sure but I think you'd have to break it off. Plus you run the chance of ruining the seal and allowing water/condensation to get into the gauge.

This is what you do. You buy the chrome accessory trim piece from Harley dealer for like $15 and it goes directly over the stock speedo trim. I found it in the bagger section of the dealer but it's 4" and fits perfectly over our stock speedo.

You can then paint it whatever color you want or you can send it to Joe @ The Powder Pro and have it powdered. You can see it in this pic in the middle of the headlight trim:



Here it is when I had it installed with just gloss black spray paint:
