replace cane creek hoods-- how?!

so, i got this lovely set of cane creek brake levers, model SCR-5. i wanted natural rubber, so they shipped a set with black rubber hoods, and included natural rubber on the package.

question: how the devil do you get the black hoods off without destroying them, or is that the only way? just cut them off? ouch!! hope not...

yer help, folks...
