Is this a easy job? I see there is some sort of rivet inside that the end cap screw mounts too?

Very, very easy. Take the screw, and stock handle grip off, and put the new one on. I saved the old ones, just in case. Put some sealant, or NON permanant adhesive on the bar before putting the grip on. I wouldnt use any super strength super glue or anything, as you may want to add different ones, or heated ones later

take the cap screw off. then i use compressed ait to take the old grip off and put the new one on, you can use hairspray to hold them in place. (white rain works the best) or they do sell "grip glue" but i wouldn't buy it.

good luck.

yes just be careful not to scar the handle bars,

if you have an aircompresser, grab the inside edge of the grip and place the air nosle right between the grip and bar and giver her alot of air and pull and the grip will kinda inflate and come right off. do the same put put new one on.
as for cutting just try not to cut into the handlebars
