Default New Paint on AP1 bumper

I recently got my car painted by a friend for a good deal. I guess he was slacking on the tape job and got some paint on the black plastic holes on the AP1 bumper. I got the car back yesterday and the paint it still fresh. How could i remove the paint off the black plastic holes?

thank you

acetone?
scrape it off with a knife?

if you want to goto the extreme, get some aircraft paint remover.
tape of the area and COVER UP THE BUMPER and spray it on the area. But whatever you do dont get it on ur bumper or youre screwed.

prolly not much help. sorry

thanks for the help though, im going to try to scrape it off and see what happens. Worst comes to worst, i might have to tape it off and use the paint remover and maybe repaint it black again.

If anyone else has a better idea please chime in. im going to go work on it right now =)
