Definently would look better mate! Those deep thread self tappers are seated nice and snug into the plastic bumber for now and has lasted longer than the new geuine grille i had painted and fitted along with a respray of the front and rear bars 4years ago. The body shop who did the work thaught 4 dobs of silicon would do the job of securing it to the front bar.
I didnt realize till it flew off a month later on the ipswich motor way headn home to coffs.
I was not a happy camper and the body shop that did the job would not take any responsibility then wouldnt take my calls. Soon after all the clear coat started lifting and cracking.
Sorry about the rant haha
