Diffuser removal help
As topic stated,
I have read some threads on this bt none were clear enuff... I tried removing my cf diffuser to try on a new one ... ( was installed by someone else and I can't get it off) I got all bolts out. Just having trouble unpluggin the pins/tabs Do I have to: A) go under the diffuser and push the tabs out really hard? Upwards /downwards? (They don't budge) B) just pull bloody hard on the whole diffuser? (As some other thread said to do so , bt I hear cracking noises which can't be good ..lol) C) take the bumper totally off .... I'm lost. The dam diffuser pins won't let loose =[ Cheers This is my current diffuser which I'm trying to take off |

i believe it's pushing upwards and i use a flathead screw in between the bumper and diffuser tab and push the diffuser out. I do all of this under the car. I get lock jaw from doing this shit.
