Has anyone replaced / removed the rear diffuser on a Gen6 Camaro? I'm looking at replacing mine on my 2020 ZL1 as the previous owner scuffed it up pretty good on the underside.

Any good "how to" videos or threads? I've searched with limited to non-existent insight. Limited videos out there, and most suggest removing the entire bumper, which I'd rather not do. Here is the part as reference:

I swapped it on SS.

From what I remember, even though someone supposedly managed to do it without removing bumper (but on a V6), by the time I saw the number of clips in play... there was no way to do it on a car, at least I'd never attempt it.

Bumper comes off fairly easily with few tugs and since it's so elastic, there's little chance of messing it up.

Thanks guys. Ugh. What a PITA...after seeing videos like this, I'm confident I could do it, but it might be more than I want to tackle for the return. Cheers

For 19 and up (I think - mine is a 21), you do not need to remove the tail lights to removed the rear fascia. There are 2 electrical connectors on the driver side and one optical connector on the passenger side. The white tab pops open the optical connector.

I removed the entire fascia and it might be easier to just do that vs trying to remove just the diffuser while on your back.

Some of tabs above the license plate can be stubborn but I popped them off with a screw driver.

I second this. Removed the rear fascia to change my tail lights.
It was easy, took me maybe 45min. think its a 7 or 8 mm and a T15 bit.

Gratefully, I have a 4 post lift. I just replaced the front splitter because the previous owner used it as a curb finder.
