no it's not easy, please don't try it yourself. If you do try it, I hope you have enough money to buy a new trunk lid.

Re: shaving the reverse lights
im not that stupid! I love my car i wouldn't hurt her like that! My friend is a realy good welder so he is going to weld a piece of sheet metal there and sand it down, and paint it. Great with body work and painting too. I just fitted the kit on my car last night and its lookin sick! Ill post pics when finished!
