ABSTRACT:
A break away vehicle grille assembly having a first piece with a locking flange and a second piece located generally adjacent the first piece. The second piece also has a locking flange that is configured to align with and releasably connect with the locking flange of the first piece. The two locking flanges can be held together with a retainer. Upon an impact to the vehicle, the vehicle grille is configured in such a manner that the first and second pieces will break away from each other and move with respect to one another in order to absorb impacts.
