So, I had to cut and sand the top edge of it quite a lot. And now the car is covered with fiberglass dust .
But eventually I got it sitting pretty nicely.

Here are just a few pics of the install. I will wash the car possibly tomorrow and take some more pics.

Great Job!

So you did not have to remove the bumper to install the diffuser ? I got the same diffuser and will install mit. How dificult is it to remove the stock diffuser?

Thanks

It's not that hard if you can get yourself under the car. It is held in place by 6 screws and few plastic holders --> 4 screws in the top edge and 2 in both lower corners. The plastic holders are in the lower edge.

Two questions:
I found the 2 screws in lower corner but i cannot see the 4 screws in top edge. How do i access them?
How do i remove the plastic holder. I found two in the lower edge?


Thank you for your help
