After taking the bumper off a couple of times, a few of those 6 plastic pop-in bolts are all mangled and useless. The ones that secure the bumper to the body near the front of the engine. Anyone know where I can get new ones, besides the dealership? And if you know their real name or part number, I'd appreciate it. New bumper going on soon and I'd like it to look clean.

 

I bought mine from the dealer for around $1 each.

 

yeah.. i found them on courtesy's website... it's the "front bumper cover retaining clip"

thats the ones..my dealer hooked me and i got mine for around 75 cents a piece..

 

I have to admit, they're a PITA to remove

 

The key to removing these and the other, smaller ones. Is to pop the inner half way up, then pull on the outer piece. If you pull on the inner piece, it just wedges the outer part out, making it more difficult.

 

Yea, they are a piece of cake once you figure out how they work.
