Homeowner with a decent amount of handiness but wondering if I’m going to bite off more than I can chew. Is it worth it to try and remove the old shower tub combo and replace it with a new one pretty much by myself? I realize this is a bit of a loaded question and can’t really be answered without knowing my skills but if anyone with skills can share some tips or steer me away from attempting this that would be much appreciated.
The biggest issue I’ve seen is hastiness - if you take the time to learn each step well and can keep yourself from rushing, then it can be fine.
It’s the ones that try to do it over the weekend because their wife is yelling at them about it that get into trouble.

I attached the listing for the product I’m hoping to use so double check any material answers I give.
Pretty sure it’s fiberglass
Tub is fiberglass as well (current one and replacement one)
Tub is being replaced
Currently no shower door
I would like to do a glass shower door
House was built in 1981
If plumbing needs replacing yes
Not sure about the replace all question
I’ve done a few projects at my house, garbage disposal and dishwasher replacement. Toilet replacements, laminate floor installation. Tool wise I have a pretty well stocked garage from miter and table saw to drills drivers etc.
