Pex is super easy to work with if you have the tools, but the expander tool for those little "rubber band" rings cost $300 last time I checked.

They do have these things call shark bit fittings that don't require a tool, and I've heard that they work. You'd have to order the proper size online. It would be super easy to cut the pex tubing and flip flop them by using shark bite fittings. But then your faucet would be fucked up, wouldn't it? Hot and cold would be on the wrong sides.
