A second \time will cause no problems if it occurs at the same
musical moment as the first one.  In your case it doesn't, due to
the different timing of the grace notes in the two parts.  As only
one \time command is needed at any point in a score (unless it 
is polymetric) it is best to stick to one at a time.
