Removing front bumpers??

Does anyone know how to remove the triangle bumperettes on the turbo front bumper? Im sure its simple, but I figured I would ask before breaking and clips... Thanks

Is not an easy remove for the front bumperettes, There are same size of cut out hole on your bumper cover, you need to fill and paint it. The best solution is replacing whole bumper cover.

You can fill the hole, but with that size, is will need alot of work to make it work but still not able to be perfect like new front bumper. There are always some used Turbo front bumper at about $500 on sale section. That will save you couple hundred from dealer.
