My turn. I ordered a headlight grill from eBay, it came quickly and I just got done putting it on. The fasteners, as simple as they are, proved to be rather challenging to put on. Determined that there must be a better way, I searched my tool box and found a bag of 14" cable ties. In black. Perfect.
The cable ties presented their own challenges but I was convinced that if I could make them work, I'd much prefer the clean look over the metal clips. I realize I'm sacrificing ease of removal and consider this an experiment of sorts. For now, I'm happy with the effort and the result.
Here are some photos of the finished project:
