MS Front Grill Pops Out

I did a search and found no answers. My grill on the main/middle part of my MS bumper opening keeps coming loose. Any way to tackle this? It's held in place by these chintzy little clips that bend in place (then bend out off place minute later).

Thanks much.

if the clips are failing, you might just need to get new clips. if not, super glue the clips to the grill for a permanent fixture. the only downside to that would be having to cut off the clips and stuff later on if you want to switch grills or what not

if you're not really up for the super glue, why dont you just get the industrial double stick tape and cut small peiced and stick it on to the clips and stick the grill on it as well, that should be sufficient as well.

Had my shop use some urethane to hold the clips in place. Today, I looked out and the entire grill had come off and was sitting inside the opening. I think it may be vandals...
