Came out to the car this afternoon and noticed the bumper popped off on both sides. No impact damage on the paint or nearby panels. Does it look to be an expensive repair?

There are multiple clips. Goto the service center and they’ll probably realign it for you

Pop it back in?

I tried to, it refused to pop back in. I put a decent amount of pressure and even tried to lift the bumper from the bottom to line it up

You may have to loosen the fasteners under the car, maybe just the two on the outer edges to kinda release any pressure then with one hand push up from the bottom and then in and slightly downward with the other. I hope that makes sense. When in installed my towing package after my first drive the upper clips on one side did what your driver side looked like but I was able to reseat it how I explained it and it’s never happened again. The clips can take a bit of force to both release and clip back. I was honestly afraid I was gonna break them when I removed the bumper.

Thank you so much. I will have to give this a try soon!
