Sounds like an I/S faring. The brass screw holders will break loose of the plastic and just spin with the screws. If you can carefully remove the trim, leaving the screws and holders, you can spin them off and JBweld the holders back into the plastics.

Clean the holders thoroughly and push the wedge plates back into starting position before reinstalling the holders back into the garnish.
Antiseize is called for in these assemblies.
Very light tightening is all that is needed for these screws.
Avoid twisting the holders again, once they are in place.
