How do I fix this-front bumper separation from fender

I pulled too far forward when parking and when I pulled away the lower valance pulled away some from the front left fender on one side. Any idea on how to fix this.

There is a metal bracket/clamp on the inside that clamps fender and bumper together. Looks like the bumper was pulled out from it.
Remove the inner plastic loosen the torx screw and re-seat the clamp if it is not damaged.
