Just go to Target, Lowes, or Home Depot and buy an electric drill. (Usually $20-$30.)
They come in quite handy around the house and your car. You can install the Grilles
in under an hour. (That's including taking off/putting on the bumper, drilling & zip tying the Grilles.)
And that's installing it carefully.

only the vrd ones is pop out pop in. the others require you to drill a bit of a hole in the bumper to secure it down.

You actually drill holes in the TABS (those that hold the OEM Grilles in place), not necessarily the bumper so to speak.
That way if you ever get rid of the FIG Grilles, the OEM Grilles cover up the tabs you drilled out.

i helped him install them eariler today, they where easy and i took my sweet time since it was abit dark and it's not my car so i'm extra caution with others. yeah drill holes and zip tie the grills. they look good on his car and give it a different look than the stock ones.
