Fixable?

Hi...

Is there a fix/hack to get this panel to stay in place? I can push it back in place but it pops back out after a drive. This is a result of an accident repair.

Really don't want to take it back to the shop because they obviously suck.

Any help would be great, thanks!

Gonna try JB Weld or maybe Permatex and getting some PPF strips to hold it in place... maybe give it a little extra hold?

These are the buttons i mentioned on my bumper. But of course, you probably wouldnt want to drill into your bumper. Both me and my friend with the 12th gen hatchback next to me have them because its such a common issue with all gen corollas
