I ended up doing this fix as well. Bought some 250lb zip ties, only to discover they were just *barely* too wide for the openings. I did the driver side first, no issues aligning it and getting it set into place (I ended up using 2 45 lb zip ties on 2 tabs, and 1 on another tab)....although the passenger side ended up popping out even further after fixing the drivers side, so with that one, I had to press in while pulling a couple of pre-prepped zip ties with pliers to get it to *mostly* align. Its not bad, but its not perfect.
In hindsight, I think it mightve gone smoother in my case if I had 1 person pressing in on the other side too at the same time when doing the first side (so the pressure is already on the bumper). I might go back and redo it at some point, but its still far better than it was, so maybe not.
