taking it out isnt overly hard. a cutoff wheel or if ur independently wealthy a plasma cutter will cut it out. welder to put a new one in. if your body isnt perfect i would dump it and pick up another one though. they made a million 4th gen montes. swap your nose, motor, fenders and vins. probably be easier.
