How do I remove these?
Ignore the yellow and red circles, this photo is just for reference. The push-pin style clips next to the yellow circles that hold the filler molding into place... how do I remove those? Car is going in tomorrow AM to fix some scratches... took apart the bumper myself to save $. Any help would be greatly appreciated... before I spend another hour in the cold cursing to myself trying to remove these little buggers....

Use a small screw driver and push it into the little grove. The clips are in two peases. You pry the center up till it stops then you can pry the button out. I use soft touch pry tools.

Are you talking about the small ones, or the ones that are circled in yellow?

you talking about the rivets holding the plastic moldings/retainers on the bumper cover? best to just backtape the moldings.. is what i did.. since we didnt stock the rivets.

I'm referring to the little retainers that hold the two pieces of black trim onto the bumper. You can see two of them directly above the mail slot.
Are they rivets, or are they just a P.I.T.A. to remove?

They don't come out there only for looks.
