Abstract
A radiator grill is provided with a snap-in plug for engagement into a contoured aperture provided in a bumper. The grill is retained at the rearward end of the bumper by means of retaining hooks. The grill is also provided at its rearward portion with slip ramps which are positioned on the upper side of the bumper so as to cause forward pivoting of the grill that eliminates a gap that may otherwise be created between the grill and the bumper at the forward edge of the grill.
