CC HELP!! Torx nut stripped

Was going to do my CC today only to find out my driver side rear torx nut is stripped. Any ideas on how to get that sucker out?

try taking all of the other ones out, and then try giving the headlight some upward pressure while

unscrewing it. Assuming it's a bottom screw. If it's a top one...you should take yourself out in the pasture and shoot yourself ;oP
