**********s matte black grills kidneys fitment

I just purchased the matte black grills at **********s. I didn't like how Oem were gloss black because I'm going for a more matte look to match my future rims.
I installed it today and the left kidney on driver side seems to just slide off if I pull whereas the right one was clipped on perfectly.
The left kidney won't clip on and the tabs are all fine.
Anyone else have this problem?

I didn't have any issues and haven't ever seen this described here before.

If I was having this problem I'd probably remove both of the parts (left and right sides both), then take a real good look at everything. See if one of the parts has a tab missing when compared to the other one, or if there's something different on the car itself. Basically do a side by side comparison to figure out what is different between what works and what doesn't work.
