Boy, do I feel like a fool......

I purchased new Titanium Grills last week, they came assembled in the box.

I took them apart to install them as you would to un-install them from the vehicle only to find out from a BMW tech friend of mine that all you have to do is "push them into the hood opening" to install them. They just snap into the grill openings without having to take them apart. I never knew this.

We've all "been there, done that, got the T-shirt" at one time or another - Just try to remember the only stupid question is the one that's not asked.
