Default Bumper removal 2001

I am going to get my back bumper powder coated. The plastic license plate holder does not have the usual "push-pin" attachments. They are metal and I can't figure out how to release them. Anyone know?

I don't remember exactly what they were, but I must have broke them off when repainting my back bumper... The holder is now held in by zip ties lol

I tried to get those off, but they wouldn't budge. I just dremeled them off and put in nut and screws instead.

Going to a nut and bolt is what I am trying to avoid. But, unless someone comes up with what they are and where to get replacements that is what I'll have to do. Thanx guys but the rest of you can keep trying.
