How hard was the installation of the new pony? I have the 2010 black chrome pony in my possession, but haven't attempted installation yet as I'm still debating whether or not to go with the Saleen grille.

You need to pull the 8 push clips out of the headlight cover, then take the two screws out holding the grille in place. Lift up the tabs and pull gently on the grille towards you. Removing the pony is the trickiest, as it's held in place with pressure washers. I took two flat screwdrivers and wiggled them, and had a friend catch as they got close. When I put the new pony in, I used an 8mm socket and pushed them back on gently.

IMO, the car should have came this way, especially on dark colors.

Oh definitely. On dark colored cars, it looks perfect. This, along with the new fog bulbs make the front of the car very sharp. Only thing missing now is the CS lower fascia.
