If the grille isn't very heavy, I used to have this black mastic stuff that you just used a little ball of it in the corner or wherever and the grille sticks to it. Kindofa bubble gum fix.

Quality double tape should work, cheap stuff may dry out and fail.

Hot glue gun?

Good idea lose the cloth, I think it looks good.

So is it one of those tabs you lost?

You did good so far.

th other one is finished also, they are not identicle but close enough.i was off by a maybe 1 mm, but you can only tell when they are close together and when there mounted on the dash there on opposite ends. Only i will know there not perfect and you guys of course. Yea i had to cut out the other clip, had to sacrifice it for the team..
