The clips are damaged then. It fits in, but will not snap. If I attempt to drive with it in, guaranteed it will fall out. How can I repair the clips and where can I buy them, if I can?

With the position of the crack I can see that being an issue. Like CaliYaris said, some type of adhesive would be the way to go. I personally would use Automotive Goop (available at any auto parts place or most hardware stores) and just put a dab on each of the 4 clips. Then, if you eventually decide to replace the bumper you can fairly easily get the cover off and reuse it.
