I broke one and the other stayed intact. See photo of clips and finished below.

Hey Vic. Can you help me understand exactly how you did this? I bought the same plastic tool kit that you referred previously on this thread, and tried to pry the piece away as you explained but with no luck.
Did you wedge one of the plastic tools between the actual bumper and the intake accent at the location of the clips? If so, did you pry and put pressure towards the bumper or towards the accent? I'm afraid I'm going to break something -- especially the mount that the clip clips into.
I was able to follow your guide on removing the mirror caps but I'm stuck on this one. Any additional help you can give would be greatly appreciated.
