Yep much easier to do with that removed

Try using your windshield cleaner. Been using Stoner Invisible Glass windshield cleaner and works great on removing the water marks.

Since the topic is up... Anyone have a good before/after pict? Trying to see if the mod is worth it. (will 'anyone' else notice?)
AND... is the grill just uncoated metal? and I could use a metal polish on the leading edge? OR is it coated? .. and should not get abrasive polish used on it? I have a bright finish and wouldn't mind the front being 'brighter'... Figure in a few years I'll go the black out look.. but not yet.

Rolex... I also have the same question regarding having the grille look brighter... In addition, my car came with the V Spoke graphite wheels and I would like to find a product that brightens them up as it the wheel itself is a dull color compared to the original wheels that came with the older model Vantages. Plus, I notice that the inside of the wheel gets dirty quick from the brake dust. I tried an Armor All wheel protector but it hasn't really worked. Any suggestions? Maybe switching to ceramic brakes?

The ArmorAll stuff works pretty good for me too. Light coating, let it dry overnight, and whatever you do, don't touch your wheels with anything after you've applied it.
Hmmm... I wonder if it would repel water spots on the grille?

Thanks for the tips... I'll try some of your suggestions during the weekend and let everyone know the results....Tim - If the windshield cleaner or Armor All Protector don't work on the grille, I'll find out about the Ventureshield/3M film you mentioned....

Have to admit I do like the look of the 6 slat grille, but I think the 8 slat just has a classic look to it. My problem is I'm missing one of the vertical brackets on my 08 Vantage and can't seem to source it without having to purchase the whole assembly. Been searching Ebay and other places, but just can't find it. If anyone knows where I can find one, I'd be very grateful. Thanks.
