    Ordered a 2021 faux pro grill w/ garnish and not seeing how this clips in? Am I completely crazy?

    Update, contacted the seller (member here) and that piece actually popped out from the front and you put the garnish in its place.

    Now that you’re all here the grill looks really good :D

    Attaches with distilled and dionized pixie dust.

    I’m sorry, totally of no help here even though I stared at it for 2 or 3 minutes trying to sort out a solution.

    <eta> it does look like it would align if you just flipped it up. Not sure how it would secure though.

    Yeah, that center section should come off, but it looks like yours doesnt come off.

    If you look really close down near the bottom of the grille, it looks like one of the design beads has a break. One on each side. Does that lead you anywhere?
