First, I dont take any reponsiblity if you break anything..... this is a very pain in the ass job. I persoanlly dont recomend you do it as the cost of breaking or scratching somthing is high.
First heres the scoop with the grill
You need to remove the grill which is tricky and CAN be pain staking
Easiest why, take off the engine cover. Just pop the black clips buy pulling on them softly to they pop, dont force them or you will be buying them
Next take theres little silver clips 2 on each side on the under side of the grills with a screw driver. Once both clips are out the grill falls off.
My grills wheren't painted as dark as I liked so I painted them myself
The hood with out the grills in them
Next drill out the grills in the honey comb style provided, I found not to do the out side 2inches of the grills as there thin and the platic likes to bend alot and is thin. Once done do a reverse install. Putting the clips back in is tricky, I have no sugestions on this, after I lost 3 of the 4clips I got clear epoxy and epoxyed mine back in.
You can leave the Pontaic black hood cover off for max air flow into the engine bay. I persoanlly didnt like how it turned out and only drilled out the passanger side, re painted it and re installed the grills. With that said I never did my driver side one as the holes your drilling out I dont see it flowing a secnificant amount of air to make a big diffrence.

That would accally be the best way to do it, as the scoops do pop off. For me that would prob be fine, however, your everyday driver that goes through rain ect I dont know how much water would enter the engine bay.
