Default Anyone have the Carbon Stealth C5 Rear Diffuser?

Any tips on the install? I tried to install mine and can't see how this is supposed to slide in. No space between the rear bumper and exhaust pipes. ​

I don't know what you have exactly but I'd think you could drop the mufflers pretty easily unless it's a stock 1 piece

No mufflers in the way should give you the room to mount the piece

So basically put the diffuser on then slide the mufflers back in? I will be able to hook the mufflers back on the mounting bracket?

Your welcome
I expect to put mine on in a few months when it has become a little warmer here in Denmark.
What exhaust do you have on if I may ask?
I have Borla Stinger Quad tips on mine
Which tape are you going to use?
I'm looking at 3M VHB tape 5952
