We have used a power drill on these parts for about two years now and have taken off and put back on probably 200-300 panels without any issues or cracking of any kind.
We take off and put these parts back on probably 1 or 2 times per day and for the sake of time use power tools. You can certainly use Non Power tools, but we have never had any issues with using power tools.
We'll check out your video. Thank you for your input. :-)
@ndokite I was surprised. I did a tutorial on removing the front a while back. Because so many of the parts are plastic, I urged NOT to use power tools. Everything can and should be done by hand. I dont run a shop, that's true. but since its my smart, i take extra care to make sure I dont end up with damaged pieces.
i broke almost all of the side skirt clips getting a dent out of the fender. where can i get the new ones? thanks

Great video... maybe to catch a few points that were missed in yours in taking off the front end, they can check the video I did.
