Default help with grill

i just bought a new grill off eurosporttuning.com and i was wondering how hard it was to take off my stock grill and put the new one on. should i try it myself, or take it to a shop? also how much do you think it would cost if i took it to a shop?

Way too easy!
In the process of buying an eggcrate grille from a guy on s40concepts.net for $80 (ooooooooooo!!!).
Installs with the original mounting hardware in 10 minutes!

NO SHOP!

Both are pretty expensive

If you get a new one and you want to sell the eggcrate a bunch of people of S40concepts.net would buy for ~$100.

I can hook you up.

I just got one from EST for my 05 S40. There isn't any hardware...lol The old one pops out and the new one snaps in its place. It took me all of 2 min. seriously!!! I wasn’t even planning on doing it at that time I went in my garage to um get some fresh are. Stuck my finger in the old grill to see what was going to be involved… Pulled a little and it started to come out. There is about 6 clips on the back. That’s it!
