Replacing Bumper Fasteners? (Pics)
I noticed the other day that these two clips (approximately below the two back-up lights on the bottom of the bumper) are broken (and have obviously been ghetto-rigged in the past. Haven't really had too much time to mess with it yet, but a few questions:
What are these clips / fasteners called?
Where could I buy some of them?
How do you uninstall / install them? (The ends farther away from the bumper cover don't seem to just want to come off)

If there is no rattle or sag then I'd leave it alone. You could drill a pilot hole and use a self tapping screw (or a bolt) into that strap to secure it. Or make new straps. I don't remember much about those and can't tell much from the pictures.

I believe they are called captive nuts and most auto parts stores such
as Advance Auto, Pep Boys ect. should carry them.
