I was wondering if there is any way to make the plastic injection line where the tabs rest any stiffer, which should cause the tabs that rest on that protruding line to function correctly by holding in the female coupler.
Thank you

Did they use an OEM or Aftermarket bumper? Either way, I would be driving back to the shop and asking them to fix it. It should not be popping out unless you hit something. Either the bumper is bad, the tabs on the bracket are bad, or something is wrong with the fender alignment. I have 20 years experience in the body shop, it should not have been delivered if they couldn't keep the bumper snapped in.
