Well ,slapped the Eyelids back....I removed and install them back so many times...good thing I only used HD double sided tape on them..."The Mod that refuse to go away"...I also chucked the rather large Caractere grill badge and replaced it with the OEM quattro badge.

Quite happy with the Caractere Hood grill and Lower mesh grill mod...It kind of completed the front-end mod of my car where the small Zender Winglets &amp; Foglight-vents had left off.

How did you attach the mesh on your lower grill? I tried some ways but none looked as clean as yours

Default I posted this earlier, but here's how I did mine.................

Can't remember but I've read from someone on this forum how he did the lower grill Mod, so I just followed it:

Just went to the local Hardware (Home Depo) and got a Roll of Thick Black Plastic Mesh used on Rain Gutters;..I used the OEM lower grill frame as a template to cut to shape; Trim it a bit then used the tinniest black zipties to strap the corners of the mesh to the 3 steel uprights on the car's lower opening..The uprights have holes on the top &amp; bottom to ziptied on...can't even see them once installed; Putting back the OEM lower grill frame was more tricky cause there's nothing to clip them on now that the stock slats is gone..so I screwed it to the bumper using 3 small countersunk self tapping screws inside of the grill opening &amp; paint the heads black.

The eyelids and skirts make the car look more squared off. I like it. A8'ish.

Any problems with too much cutoff on your headlight beam? Halogen or HID?

They're HIDs..no cut-off problem since the eyelids don't go low enough to hit the beam.
