Question Ionic grill [movement]??

I installed finally my ionic grill yesterday, looks great and fit perfect without any hassles.. etc, but after driving a bit today, I noticed it moved slightly, it's now a tighter gap on the passenger side and more gap on the driverside - yet when I try pushing a bit on the grill, it did not seem loose at all to have moved around on its own. I put all the 6 clips in tight so I have no clue as to why/how it shifted?

does anyone else have this problem/issue?

I double checked the grill today, the holes are actually way off ...
when the holes sit flush with the tabs, it's actually causing the grill to pinch against the bumper a bit (paper tight) and leaves a 1cm gap on the driver side.

so right now it's held in with zipties to cure that problem.

with or without the zipties though, the grill (passenger side as well) sits a bit more flush against the bumper/car than the driver side, the driver side is a bit more (too) flush inside the bumper. I'll take pics when I can and post them up.

I'm a bit bummed but to the average person, I doubt they can notice it, I certainly did not when I initially put on the grill.
