Question Installing front rotary accent

Anyone who installed this yourself, how difficult is it? I just scouted it out, and I'm frankly afraid I'm going to break my spoiler or the bumper's plastic. Do I just shove it on back and it snaps into place with no problem? What about those strange "fasteners?" They obviously don't screw in, so how did you attach them?
Thanks.

It's easy. The fasteners go through the metal accent and don't touch the plastic. They are like a security device that keeps them from coming off.

The accent comes with good instructions (in English even). Installation is a piece of cake.

I just installed my front & rear accents -- it was extremely easy, just read the directions.

Easiest install ever...... clean, and stick pretty much. Those fasteners just pop in.. will take some nudging, but they go in tight... just be careful not to bend them and break them..
