Eye brow mouldings
« on: September 26, 2020, 07:10:43 PM »
Does anyone have any pictures of the backside of original eyebrow mouldings ? The ones I have fit like dog crap, see attached.

Yesthey could have been made better. Too late to complain to Shelby Automotive.  The spot weld witness mark on the chrome side on many genuine examples are a way to ensure originality. In concours consequently that defect is not deducted for by informed judges.  Some later reproduction eliminated that look.

Well, I can take these off my list of purchasing then. thanks Bob I was concerned about those spot weld marks and overlap of the brackets, that was the main reason why I wanted to repurchase.
