Installing front H&R VTF lowering springs

Anyone run into the issue that the metal cap on top of the shock collar stops the vtf collar from going on. Anyone found a way to remove it easier? Or is it just bang it off or heat it up to remove? Don’t want to damage the shock or risk puncture removing it but if some force is needed I guess so

When I installed Eibach springs, I immediately bought new shock absorbers...
