Default How to removie rear diffuser

I’m looking for some information on how to remove rear diffuser to replace it with the ARP v2. I tried the search, but didn’t find much. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank Bob

I removed mine this afternoon. Two bolts behind license plate, two bolts above exhaust tips but they are recessed in and back. Around 8 screws on the bottom of defuser. Reach behind the diffuser and squeeze the clips to the red reflector trim. Squeeze and push those, three places have clips on that reflector. One on each end and one in the center. After you remove the reflectors their are two bolts behind each reflector to remove. Your done, just pull it outwards.
