Yes,
In my case, I epoxied a steel bar, 1/8"by1/2", cut to length, along 
the entire inner length of the fascia above the headlights. Before 
gluing, I put the slight curve needed into the bar by precision 
hammering along one edge, and trial clamped the piece in place to 
make sure the eyebrows were alleviated before putting in the glue (PC-
7, my favorite, messy but very effective) I've talked to others 
who've successfully used aluminum and windshield adhesive bead, which 
I think is also a very nice idea. 

Getting my fascia back on was hard, because it had shrunk by 
about .3% in length over the years, and there isn't a provision for 
adjustment of the mounting points on the car in that dimension.

My car didn't have eyebrows when I bought it, but developed them 
while the fascia was stored off of the car, which I thought was 
pretty weird.
