I have had the item for a while and have had it for a long time. at least 2 months, but coincidentally one side flew off the car while driving, which is very dangerous, i'm glad it didn't hurt anyone. They look really good and I really like them, but they really need to manipulate them in some way to provide better protection as the clips aren't exactly aligned. I'm disappointed because I only have one grille now (looks ridiculous) so I'm sticking with the originals for now. Like I said, these grilles are really good and the build quality is great, but I don't want to spend another $40 to buy new ones because there's a chance they'll fly off at any moment.
