Don't separate the hoop halves. They are made of polypropylene and it's very hard to get them to join again.
Honda attaches the two halves by hot bonding using a wire in that joint and giving it enough current to melt the two halves together. They didn't use glue.
Trim the plastic with a dremel and a small cutoff wheel, and cover the sloppy exposed cut edges with some flexible black door edge guard.

Thanks!
