Loose lower fan shroud

Anybody ever problems with the lower radiator fan shroud coming loose? I had a noise coming from the area right infront of the oil filter, and noticed that the shroud was loose enough to make contact with the fan. Got under the X, popped it back in, but it's pretty loose to begin with. There's a plastic clip on the left and right side of shroud, but they're not very tight. It was the right side that was coming loose for me. It would drop, sending the left side of the shroud into the fan. Thanks!

As some of you might know, I am retarted, so forgive me if this is a stupid question but what would the harm be of running without a shroud? I just did my body lift and cant seem to get it back on(may be because of the lift, don't know)
Only thing I can think of is that with it on, its harder for things to kick up off the road and into your fan. But even that happening is tough with the skid and plastic shroud below the front bumper. Hmmmm...
