Default Grille Delete Help
Ok, I was removing my old grille and while I was removing one of the plastic tabs/screw on the fascia the hole broke. The tab/screw was giving me a hard time. Now I have a problem securing the bottom lip. Any suggestions?

ouch man that sucks! The bottom lip of the grill correct? You may be able to hide a screw in there.

The problem is securing it. The screw and tab will just sit in the hole not securing anything

oh that sucks. I know some people will use 3M doublesided tape to have it fit more flush to the bumper for the lip. You can try that.

Here is the finish product. Doesn't sit as flush as I'd hope maybe ill try 3m tape. Stupid plastic taps on the lower lip broke trying to slide under the fascia.

Looks good but I see what you mean about not fitting flush. 3M tape should help that for sure.
