You don't need the extension or anything, so basically it is just the screws and thats it. When you put it on you just have to make sure the latch goes in the place where it goes....should take about 10 minutes

For crying out loud, the grille is held in with six 8mm bolts. You do have a metric socket set, I assume. If this takes more than ten minutes, well..........
The secondary hood release lever extends out through the second level grille slot.
And I did the same mod three years back.

I think depending on the grille you may have varying number of screw bolts to remove and put back, I took 8 off and there were only 6 to use for the new grille. Its fairly simple although depending on the car and grille i've heard some people need to extend their hood release latch that comes through the grille.
