Default Would this be hard to do

<center><img src="http://pictureposter.audiworld.com/14856/silver_s4-rs4.jpg"></center><p>Just realized that the S4 front end looks sort of like the RS4. WOuld it be hard to take out that middle part between the 2 grilles and put in some mesh, I think It would look pretty sweet. This is a 2 min p-shop job.

Default VERY EASY, but will require so painting and little bit of body work afterwards.

If you cut the middle parts out using a very mild rotary tool to prevent cracking or damage to existing bumper. You will then have to sand down the bumper smooth and fill in with a poly-urethane bumper mix to make it all look uniform. After that you will have to have it smooth out primed and painted. Then find some mesh that is to your liking and have it put screwed into the factory bumper, realy rather easy. I would definately recommend a skilled bodyshop to do it for you. Expect it to cost you around $250 after parts and labour.
