Lower Mesh Grill Not Secure
Anyone else have this problem where the lower center mesh trim won't stay secure on the bumper. No matter how hard I pull it back forward onto the bumper mounting tabs it just slides off. Doesn't seem like it'll actually come off since the bottom part is sandwiched in between bumper and lower cover but it's annoying nonetheless.

I had the same problem for the LONGEST time! Until just 4 weeks ago I was down there detailing the car.
I grabbed long nose pliers and pinched the lower mesh grill from every tab meeting the bumper. I pulled without much effort and they all "clicked" in there just fine. Last I saw my car last week, tabs seem to still be in place.

I have the bottom attached well with about 5 or 6 screws. I have left the top free for I feel (body guy supports my reasoning) that the bumper hits curbs etc and it allows for flexing rather than breaking off.
