Rear bumper chrome trim

Has anyone installed the chrome trim accessory on the bottom of the rear bumper? If so, how difficult is it and could you post pictures please?

I purchased one and scheduled to have it installed, but found out that it wasn't compatible with the tailgate kick feature; my dealer was able to refund my purchase.

Looking at the installation instructions posted by EE4Life in the 2019 RDX Accessory Installation Instructions thread, it doesn't look too difficult despite the warning at the beginning of the instructions saying "these procedures should not be attempted by do-it-yourselfers". I am pretty sure that you can skip the steps requiring your to remove the spare tire.

In hindsight, I should have referred to the Accessory Installation Time document, since it indicates what accessories are compatible with which trim models, but the name of the document was misleading.

The front lower bumper garnish seems a little more involved as it requires the removal of the front bumper cover. I was able to have the dealership install that for me before picking up my RDX.
