Well things like these that are easy and doable. I'll rather just do it myself. Because I like to interact with my car once in a while, and idk every time i do something to it and it comes out good (like my grilles today) I makes me feel good inside.
+1 its not really that 200 is that big of a deal but the feeling of doing it yourself is awesome! it feels good to try it and be successful.

And your welcome

yes diy can be fun, but removing the trims from the car really is a good exercise for your fingers. GL.

As I've said before, there will always be a certain satisfaction and pride you get from DIY, that you just can't get from a shop, and I know we have great shops here (Trinity and EuroRev to name 2), but I've always done almost all my work myself.
