Finally, a truly unique post in C4 general- I've never seen one of those before. Looks like it is irreparably screwed through the bumper, unfortunately.

on edit: Or are those rubber baby buggy bumper nipples?

That is actually an anti-theft device. I mean, who the hell would want to drive that?

Kind of misaligned. Has an inch gap on drivers side and none on the passengers side.

My first thought exactly. "Let's see, I am going to buy something to protect my front bumper, and then drill holes in it to fasten the protector." That's just nuts.
