2017 2SS tow hook grill repair

Anyone reinstall the pull out grill piece after putting the tow hook in? I’m looking to cut with a Dremel tool to reinstall the grill over the tow hook.

Wonder about this as well

Does the grill piece not snap back in place. I have never removed mine but assumed it snapped back in.

It snaps back in place, I believe OP is wanting to put it back on over the tow hook.

Personally I never notice the gap in photos but personal opinion

Looks like it has to be cut to reinsert in the grill

If it's the same issue I had, you have to cut a small piece off so the tow hook would fit then snap it back on. Just cut off the piece that's hitting. Its not a big deal, no measuring needed. You dont even notice it. Some tow hooks are wider in dimension.

Hey guys and gals. I just bought a 2019 Camaro 2SS 2 weeks ago and love it!!! I bought a front tow hook and I'm having some problems screwing the ring into the rod. Once I have the rod screwed all the way in I can't screw the ring because it hits the top of the bumper. Can anyone help me???
