Maybe two of the easiest mods to do. Euro stickers from Phi and black matte grill (autotechnik). Stickers took about 5 minutes to do and grill took about 10 to 15 minutes to do. Did not have to remove 5 torque screws to remove grills. Sorry about the pics. Still pretty new at this. Next mods: body kit and wheels. Any suggestions? Thanks for looking.

After reading the DIY I thought it was going to be challenging. I didn't have a torque screw so I had no choice but to try and get the grill off without moving the bumper. Someone posted to just jiggle it a bit. I was able to get the top clips, one of the side clips and both bottom clips. Once removing one grill, you can just just reach into the other side from the back.

Anywhere special to purchase the black/white roundels? CF or just plain b/w? Pretty easy to install? Thanks.
