you might have to do one of two things....either the filter is clamped on and you'll have to take a screwdriver and loosen the clamp...or for some reason the filter is just real snug on the pipe and you'll just have to pull it off

The filter element is holding the lower portion that why you cant take it out , you need to take of the plastic on the fender well and try to disconect the filter from the tube or try from the bottom, the other way is taking the bumper off more work but less headache.

Yep, the piping won't come out unless the filter is off first. The filter is right behind the pass. corner lens, just pull down the splash guard and you'll be able to get at it and unscrew it.
