M-Sport Rear Bumper Insert Popping Out

The insert on the bottom of the rear of my M-Sport rear bumper keeps popping out. It is held in place by several plastic tabs. None of them are broken, and I am able to get them all secured in place, but they just pop back out soon after. Has anyone dealt with this and found a way to keep the insert in place? I'm not really seeing much of an option other than maybe just gluing it in place

I have the same issue. Would be nice to here a fix from someone else who has experienced this.

Is it heat related? Plastic trying to flex and / or getting soft at the tabs?

If you do glue be sure to use a good one, probably an epoxy, and don't let it get all over the place and turn ugly.
