how old are you?? you should really learn to do stuff like this yourself if you plan on modding your car. if you can change your oil you can do this! if it is a cold air intake it maybe more of a pain but you can remove the headlight more times then not rather then removing the fender cover. please learn how to do this yourself.

ALTHOUGH..if you dont have any plans on tuning, this upgrade is a waste. buy some stickier tires or something else. if you do buy this i wouldnt put this on until i bought all my bolt ons and was getting it tuned. this will have very minimal performance gains with no tune and could even cause a decrease in power. it will make a cool woosh sound.. or just wait for the gm stage kit if you think that will ever come out. that would be your best bet if you are scared to install the intake...
additionally, if you mess with the intake MAKE SURE YOU REMOVE THE RECIRCULATION HOSE FROM THE NIPPLE. or else it willl break and that part is like 70 bones.
