OK. Remove the bumper. Remove that plastic bracket that the bumper tip slides into.
Then fit that bracket onto the bumper to see if there's excessive play or any other problem that doesn't allow the bumper side of that assembly to stay snug.
My guess is that the problem is either in the bumper side of it (broken/worn out guides) or the bracket side.

umm.. my bumper on the passenger side wouldn't clip on, and
even when I tried doing a football tackle on it like what some posts said, it didn't work.
I finally got it to clip on by standing facing foward, with my left leg parallel to the angle of the bumper, and then rammed the bumper with the side of my left leg.
works pretty well. pushed the bottom and top of the passenger side of the bumper at the same time upward and into the car so that it catches onto the top and bottom clips.

Had the same prob on both sides....here
grab the bottom of the bumper(below where it got uncliped) and pull it out a little then push it up and in towards the fender so it is now sitting overlapping the fender a little. Now push down and in from the top of the bumper and it should snap it and stay there.
happend to both sides of mine
