Removing Rear Diffuser?

Looked, and found two threads about the removal of the stock diffuser. None of which had pictures or diagrams. Anyone have a link? or pictures of a job they did them theirselves that I can see to install my new one?
thanks

I'd like to know too, because i'm planning on removing it and replacing it with the RK sport black gelcoat fiberglass one with carbon fiber panels.

I need to remove my diffuser so I can cut a big hole in it for my 2" receiver. I also would like some instructions.

Don't worry there will be plenty of pics when it's done. But in the meanwhile, how do you take it off?

So I took off the 6 bolts, and saw 4 clips from under the car. But I still can't get it to budge. The top of it where it meets the bumper... how do you loosen that up? I can't see the back side because there's a piece of metal blocking it. Are there more clips? If so where, and how do I get at them?

Many others specifically say you don't have to take the rear bumper off :(
