2017 Silverado 1500 WT Grill swap

[MistercapNando]

My Silverado is a Base model 2017 WT. Currently have a new 2016 LTZ grill that i bought tobget paint matched so its primered not chrome. However when i try to attach the three main trim peices these inserts have nowhere to enter beside some molds that are where a cutout is suppose to be? Thats the only thing i need is to be able to assemble it all because i want to vinyl wrap it before i install on truck.

Did you ever manage to figure this out? I have the same grill but mine still has the 3 big trim pieces on and theyre pretty difficult to remove, it makes me want to give up lol.
