Re-installing Front Bumper to fender support

Ok I got everything on but the 4 screws that connects the side of the bumper onto the fender. For some reason I think i stripped the fender support. Are these thing made out of plastic? Would it be hard to replace if I just order some new ones? Any help would be appreciated

Yes, you can strip them out. And the order to install the hardware is to put the four torx screws in on front top of bumper, then four bumper to fender bolts, then under tray. Any other order and you just don't have enough room to pull the inner fender liner around enough.

So where can I find the support? Mine just stripped out. M3 bumper didn't have the best fitment so shop stripped out one during install. Then tire rub caused the other one to strip.
