Default My front grille keeps coming off

I was reminded by Moreno5's post about mesh grille that my front grille (not mesh) keeps coming loose in the bumper.

First time I hit a rabbit, which is fair enough, but I've since had the whole bumper and grille replaced and I noticed the other day it's come loose again.

Is it easy enough to fit back, or has it got stupid feeble little plastic clips which have snapped or something?

Bad news

The black grill is held on with feeble plastic studs inside the bumper. These snap on impact.
If the grill and bumper are OK best bet is to glue it back in!
