I want to get rid of my eyebrow as it has never sat right, sticks out to much and there is no adjustment left on the grill!

Think it would look ok?

Only problem i have is that it has been screwed into the grill, if i remove it how can i get rid of the screw holes?

Cheers

Personally I think they do a good job stopping ur eyes getting dust, but a Bit of shaving gel and a mach 3 should do! :laugh: Otherwise a bit of plastic welding with ur soldering iron stinks like hell but works a treeat!

Probably got lost in the "Great Crash of 08

Cheers!I just want the damn thing to sit right! :)

The whole front (not that you can see from the pics) is mishapen, probablly from a slight knock it must have had! the bumper is sagging to one side, the front wing seems to be loose where thye saging bumper is, the grill is loose and does not fit tight!

If i can get those damn bumper bolts off, i'll try and re-align everything! They are on solid! i think i need one of those breaker bars!

i prefer them without the eyebrow spoiler now, gives the car a far more cleaner look

I would like to remove it, but i'll have all those holes :) i might fill the holes from the eyebrow and and spray the grill matt black!


*Thinking out loud*

Obviously going to clean it, rub it down and plastic primer it, just unsure on what black spray paint i should get? should it be matt or gloss? what makes are good? Halfrauds?

Thanks mate,

Hopefully they will not show, i will have to sort the sitting of the grill as some of the clips have broke, will have to tie them in!
