If your talking about the bumper and the plastic clips holding it to the inner arch, get a small screwdriver/punch/nail or whatever, and push the centre bit through. Dont loose it though! Then just pull the other part out from the arch. Turn your wheels inwards though so you have a decent bit of clearance to do it.

Just drill the rivets out, you will / may need cutting compound to get the marks out of the paint when you take them off.
