I took off my center engine grill to clean up and noticed that it's a bit off.
The center of it if popped up. When I press down it goes into place and looks good but then pops up again. The result is when it's on the car it doesn't have the slight curve from left to right side. Is it possible to pop it in place for good? I don;t want to bent it up. Or should i be shopping for another? ...also anyone polish out or chrome these ? ....look good? |

Are you using the clips to hold it in place? It must be really bent to overcome the clips and pop loose.

The upper pins should hold it with the ones on the trunk side. Even if it's slightly warped. I suspect you forgot to install the speed nuts or push pins.

So are all of them like this and they straighten out when installed?
Really hard to tighten it down with those crappy rubber coated "things" |
