They're bolted on. Easier with the bumper off, but should be do-able with it in place.

They AREN'T bolts, iirc, they are clips. There is one at the front edge of each trim piece, in the wheelarch, that needs picked out, then and this is if I recall, the trimpiece SLIDES backwards out of some T-shaped clips, but it takes a LOT of force to get it out as the clips are full of crap and rust.

If you are spraying, why not mask off the bumper?
