How did you fix your problem?
To get them off, I shoved a flat head under the washer and pushed the screw so that it's putting the nut against the bumper frame and just cranked on the bolt. Having someone else always helps. You can also use a long nose plier as long as you can get between the bolt head and the bumper frame.

I don't have the solution for replacing the bolts yet...I have seen some plastic piece that you can insert in the bumper frame then use the bolt to fasten but not sure how well that'll work. I will keep looking tomorrow and see how that goes...
