Front bumper mount question...

[77granfury]

Just before I damage something:

The front bumper should have 2 bolts on each side, held in place by some sort of "metal leaf":


  

Now, this is how mine looks: that metal "leaf" isn't there, and I'm missing a few bolts. Just wondering.... can I just pry that "leaf" out of the old bumper support to gain access to the bolts as it feels pretty stuck - I don't want to use excessive force and damage something just to find out later that there was a trick to it...



Thank you!

I figured it out - that leaf thing can carefully be removed from the bottom towards the top with a screwdriver and hammer. That was easy. I just didn't want to damage anything.
