[DeTomaso] L conversion front bumperettes

Factory split steel bumpers do not cover the 1"+ OD holes. Most owners that want steel bumpers weld plugs in, then dress the welding and repaint to cover the holes that are in both front and back. Factory split front bumpers also do not match up well with L model turn signal housings. Quite a few owners have done it this way but it's not simple nor cheap. Kirk Evans 'Amerisport'  makes some of fiberglas that cover things and match the housings.

Have you converted your front "L" bumper to the Euro "eyebrow" type?
Do you like them?  Would you do it again?
It looks like they cover the 5 MPH bumper shock absorber hole.

I see Hall has them but don't see them on Wilkinson's or PIM's sites.  
Is Hall the only source?
