How easy/hard is it to install the diffuser? Do you need to remove the whole rear bumper? Thanks.

Technically no, but it's a pita if you dont. There are 4 torx screws that hold the top portion of the diffuser to the bumber. Though you can flex the bumper a bit to get to the outer ones, the inners are a pain. I used a torx bit gripped with pliers to loosen the screws, then turned them with the bit and my fingers. I couldn't get enough clearance to use a bit on a ratchet. There are probably easier ways, but that was mine lol. It will definately help if the car was on a lift. Good luck!

Yes it is mounted to the bumper with pins and glue. I would recommend a shop to install this unless you are good with your hands.

This is ACS style diffuser, made from a mold of the original ACS diffuser.
