Eyebrow Kidneys - Bleh or Yeah

It might grow on me......


Replace my Tit. Kidney Grills with aftermaket gloss black kidney grills
Fitment was okay. Looked GREAT though, against the JB paint...

Quality was poop as one of them fell off during driving !

Shop that put them in (in was in the shop for paint), ordered me a set of replacements, but it's got the eyebrows on them.....bleh.

I'm going to see how I feel about in in 2 weeks, but I suspect I'll probably just fleabay another non eyebrow gloss black set and add a little gasket sealer on the new one just to make sure it sticks on doesn't fall off.

Eyebrows just feel weird to me...

Do not like the eyebrows- even on cars that were stock. My buddy has an '06 E90 with them. Blech.

LOL. I've fallen off the wagon on the X5. I'm done spending $ on my OCD versus necessity....
I think I've reached that breaking point where any $ I put is going to be a necessity towards a repair only. My most recent OCD replacement was all the weatherstripping, having the roof/rails repainted and replace 2 of the plastic sill trims just because it was a bit fatigued/dirty.

Between a couple of unexpected repairs this year (sunroof cassette) being the biggest, I'm at the crossroads of trying to NOT spend money on the X...

I dunno. I'll give it 2 weeks and I know I probably won't get over it....and will end up replacing it. I hate it now. I was hoping ya'll will talk me out of spending money ;-/
