lol yea just pop it out.... if you can id try to heat the paint up to about 120-140 degrees then try to pop it out. Heating up the paint will allow it to flex and not crack (spider web)

Nice ... you're a lucky guy
I see you are from California, I hope you are in SoCal.
If you are, then give this guys a call:

My dad's M5 bumper was worst than yours, but those guys were able to fix them. We were amazed with the result.
Your bumper is fixable, no worries.
