I Broke It

So I ordered new Fog light Assemblies and new LED Foglight bulbs..........Before they gat here I thought Id remove the old ones..I sprayed some penetrating oil on the bolts(M-6) and the first one of 6 came off ok..The others not so good luck.. The mounting ears on the truck are plastic and are part of the bumper, i guess.....Now what do I do? The ears on the Truck tore off with the old bolts connected......

are the ears completely torn off? i just got the next size bigger in SAE - used real hex bolts and new speed clips at 90* different from the old ones to re attach mine. you coudl get by with a large fender washer instead of a speed nut.

I may be able to get the drivers side to work..On the passenger side one id stretched so bad there really isnt a hole there and the one at about 1 o'clock came off attached to a piece of plastic..Not sure if I can glue it back on or not..I hate to buy a new valance..Between Lowes and Ace Hardware, I found all new hardware, but now msome wont work because there is no ear to attach it too.
