Upper Grille Trim Broken Clips

Good morning

So I did a stupid and while removing the grille trim to plastidip it, I broke a bunch of the clips pretty badly. I can put the trim piece back on (the side screws hold it up pretty well) but the middle section where most of the clips broke, sags a bit. It's noticeable.

Anyway for me to use any kind of adhesive to glue that thing back up or should I just buy a new piece of trim?
