Anyone else notice that the lower lip of the S grill pops out of the clips in the lower bumper whenever you so much as touch it? Everytime I wash/dry the car it pushes in. My fingers are too big to fit in the holes so I have to use a tool with a bend in it to pull it back out into place.

Am I the only one?

Well I had changed the whole thing all together with an alluminum grill that fits, cleans and looks better than the standard one
