Heat the fork leg gently. If they have been on for years the steel and alluminum will have corroded together.

Hi
New covers are available for about the same cost as chroming in the UK, for me it was a 'no brainer' buy new - especially as one cover was a little reluctant to unscrew:
'C' spanner got it in the end
