    Alright so i'm new to mods and new to driving. I was removing my grill today and i accidentally dropped a clip. The clip landed on the skid plate and slid down and now is stuck. It is in a place where i can't reach it with a screw driver or anything.
    Will my grill be fine without a one clip?
    Any ideas on how to get the clip?
    It was the lower middle clip
    Here are some pictures....
    First pic: where the clip would go
    Second pic: Where it is stuck

    As long as it didn't fall into the blinker fluid reservoir, causing the muffler bearings to seize and melt your drilled and slotted brake lines.....you'll be ok to baby it home.

    enough to go over stuff
    You guys are mean. Haha. Yeah. Pull the skid plate off and grab it or a zip tie till you can spend $25 bucks on a new one at the dealer. The bottome of my grill is all held together by zip ties by the way.

    Doesn't hurt to worry about it, and nobody was chastising you.
