Can I fix these eyebrows?

hooligan NX2000 · 03-08-2007, 08:48 PM

I've had these eyebrows sitting around for years, I never installed them because they were a little messed up when I received them. (they were ordered to my moms address while I was away in college, and by the time i went home and opened the package it had been a lil while already since i ordered em, so i put em back in the box and forgot about them)

heres pics, how would I go about fixing them up/what would be best to use?

I'm sure bondo would work fine on it. Get it smoothed out nicely and apply a light layer of bondo. Sand smooth and install. I would also mold them into the actual bumper itself for a clean look. Just my .02.

you sure can. my first set looked liked that and i didnt feel like fuxing around with them. waited and snagged a set previously owned by pretty white who put alot of time into making them perfect.

but yes you can its just gonna take some time.

cool, thanks guys.

yeah i want to mold them to the bumper as well. So just some bondo should do the trick? Wasnt sure if that would work.

I'll try it out!

oh, and should i just screw them onto the bumper from the back part, then mold them on? or is that not even needed (the screws)

I'm not sure as to how to mount them. I would make sure you have some secure way of having them on before molding them in. I think bondo/plastic filler will do the trick. Just try and make the surface on the eyebrows even and make sure you sand well enough so the bondo has something to grip onto. Cranks are no good!

big screws ! screw them from the bottom up inside the headlight hole. id suggest some 3mm double sided tape also. then go to town with your bondo. sand, prime paint and post up pics

no biggie homes, i actually flipped them for more

.

didnt realize what i was getting into once i held them up to the nx i was like

.

ians set was perfect though, a lil wet sanding some spray paint and it was minty.

im actually going to be re-doing them in the future, lil touch ups here and there and paint them to match the body color.

nice man. guess we both made out pretty good in the deal, i got em for free.

DC Scotty · 03-12-2007, 10:17 PM

Who/Where in Germany did you find them?

jerimiah · 03-13-2007, 04:18 AM

I cant remember, the guy was really intent on getting a digital NX gauge cluster, so we swapped eyelids for gauge cluster. I think the guy was making them and selling them quite often, I just cant remember his name. Might have been Bjork or something like that.
