So I'm planning on painting the bumper trim on my car. The shoe polish didn't work for me? Any tips on how to get the trim off without breaking it or the clips?? Thanks!

Clips? No, far more heinous than that.
There are little studs molded into the back of each panel. They poke through holes, then get nuts on the backside, or at least some of them do. Enough are that way that I say fuck it, mask the fuck out of your car, wetsand with 400, then 600, then spray "high build" primer, then paint.
Remember to put the little bitch up on jackstands and get a short wheeled stool so you don't cripple yourself doing the damn thing.

I took mine off to refinish a while ago. Its not *that* bad but it is a serious PITA.
Mine were starting to rot from sun damage, so I had to start with a coarse paper, then a 400, then some high build primer, then paint. Although, Id be careful if you do take them off, they tend to bend and warp really easy.
