I cut mine off damaged bumper, using a a metal scraper basicly was hard work but they came off. had a friend holding the bumper down.
I then repaired the damaged lip using a 2part epoxy made by 3M cant remember the name off my head. But never got round to fitting them back to new bumper.

Nope i dont think so
Theres a few rivits on on bottom , but they should see them and have drilled them out.
Just hack away. The sealant holding the lip on is quite thick and very hard. As my bumper was split around foglights, i didnt tape up bumper to avoid marking it as it was getting scrapped.
the damage to one lip was just a small crack , which i packed the inside with epoxy stuff, sanded front of lip and skim of filler. Its now soild and wont crack there again.
Ask for the lip back , and keep it as spare or sell, as it may well be repairable.
