Default Grille Delete install question

I got the grille delete kit from the ford dealership and I've gotten all the parts on but my one question is, what did you guys use to secure down the grill aplique? My kit didnt come with any hardware so i need something to secure down those 4 holes that connects with the bumper. Any help or suggestions would be great.

Bought a set of assorted speed nuts from auto zone for like 3 bucks and put them on backwards. Holds snug as heck. :banana:

I just did my grill delete 2 days ago - my double-sided tape is lifting already, I'll have to get a thicker piece or something.

good to hear that other people were annoyed with the install also.


now with my chin spoiler on today, my car is free from the world of stock mustangs. I'm lovin it®

Mine used double sided tape and it has held on for more than a year now.

Thanks guys. Looks like I'll be getting some double sided tape. Now if I could only afford new tires, I could put my last xmas present on. Got some Deep Dish black bullits.
