Bonded like glued? Or you think there are screws holding it in there from the back side? I'm even entertaining the idea of taping the netting off and dying it black somehow. I just bought it and there are red and blue stains on it from the previous owner.
Yes. There are two hooks that hold the the main bungee string on the back side of the panel. Pry open slightly the hook on one side with a flat head screw driver while grabbing and extending the bungee string from the end that has a metal end cap. Do this to each end. Make a knot on each end so that it does not come loose.
