Hey Team - A trim from someone else's car was randomly on the highway. Needless to say, I spotted it way too late to swerve (had cars on my left and right) and ran right over it. The aftermath is the lower front grille will not go back into place. Is this repairable or do I have to replace the front portion? Anyone had similar experience? Thanks, appreciate it.

Video of incident, occurs around 7-9 second mark:

You likely will be able to pop it back into place. I was able to with mine. You will still have that crack but it’s hardly noticeable.

I believe it’s sold eight the whole bumper assembly only.
