The only thing close that I've seen, was a suggestion by K-Man S in one of his Articles: to replace the upper retaining screw/clip, which is the one which apparently causes the most headaches in removing the cover, with something like a Velcro sticker the first time you remove it. At least that makes it easier to remove on subsequent occasions.

Here's a link to his Article on PSS Coil-overs where he mentions it about 2/3 the way down the page. He also has links to his Bumper Plugs articles where he explains the removal process.
