Looking around at the stock vehicles at the location where I went to look at this vehicle, I noticed that all of the models from that era had a millimeter wave radar cover that fit inside the grille, and both ends of the outer clear plastic cover had lifted off of the base and were discolored white. So I decided to try painting it.
To remove this cover I needed to remove the grill, and to remove the grill it looked like I would need to remove the bumper, so I got a hold of a junk grill and checked the structure from the back. So I folded back a general-purpose stay to make a tool, which I inserted into the side of the front cover, opened the tab on the back, and devised a way to remove just the cover, so I tried it out.
The idea worked well, and I was able to remove only the cover. I painted it, added lines with a mirror seal, and put it back on to finish it.
The top is the original state. The marble pattern is not bad, but the peeling on both sides is still bothersome.
Finished by adding lines with mirror stickers. The cover that came with the Junk Grill is peeling off from the top left and right sides.
