Open up the hood and install it from the inside.
Btw, why do you insist on typing in all caps when in the subject title you were able to type in small letters?

you can easily fo it yourself. a dealer would probaly charge you an half hour or an hour of labor for a five minute job. if you have never done it before, it will probally take you 15 - 20 minutes. just a little advise, i think the brabus hood badge is a lug nut screw on and a little hard to get centered and tighted. its also very small and if your like me and have big fingers its a really good idea to drap a towel over the top of the engine just in case you happen to drop the lug, which is very easy to do.

The upright star is held in place by a twist lock from below.
Open hood. Look at underside of star mount. You'll see a strip of stamped aluminum surrounding the mount closest to you. with one hand holding the star from the outside, use the other hand to turn the aluminum bits 1/4 turn counter-clockwise, or until the mount releases. Pop. Pull the whole thing out from the top of the hood and your ready for Mr. Brabus ornament.
