STI Front Bumper
 

I'm looking to get my front bumper tidied up a bit as it's picked up a few stone chips and some spidering here & there.

One of the body shops I approached was concerned about the winglets on the side and possibly damaging the bumper when taking them off, as he can't mask off the black strip between them and the main bumper.

Does anyone know if they are merely clipped in place or whether Subaru also used some sort of adhesive as well to hold them on?

Thanks in advance! :-D

they are clipped in and defo need removing to paint the bumper.........
