Ecklers front surround received
The nose bar wasn't attached
. They are sending me a nose bar and rivets. Is it easy to do? What are headlight reinforcements? Catalog says it has them. Is this something I can visably see? Plus there is a (?) slight crack on the top that doesn't go thru the bottom. Should I consider this normal? Should I grind it down and fiberglass/matte it or would epoxy primer fill it? A couple other what appear to be surface flaws that I'm sure aren't of concern.

Is this crack a concern?

I figured nothing is perfect anymore but I was concerned about the crack resurfacing after paint. Since this is my first front surround replacement, I thought I'd pose the question to those more experienced.
