side ones just pop off.. i would get some new clips from peugeot before you take them off as you will get some KIA... i took the bumpers off to get my bumper strips off the front and back but ive seen people do it without just a bit more fiddly.
I think i used 800 grit first then grey primer and then 1200 in between layers. Also go for gloss black not matt, matt is a pig to get a good finish and pig to keep it looking smart.

You mean, visit a main dealer! 
In all seriousness, a Peugeot / Citroen main dealer will be the cheapest source for the clips unless you really like getting ripped of on Ebay
