Did this today and here's my take...
What a ROYAL P I T A!!!
Bolts and push pins were nothing, obviously.
The ends of the stock diffuser came out fairly easily.
I tried the pry tool method on the middle tabs with little success.
It came down to wiggling and muscling the OEM unit out.
I'm not a dandy, but my hands sure paid the price. And, I feel certain there was some minor damage to the female lip of the bumper where the tabs go.
The M Performance C/F diffuser (thanks SunMotorsBMW) went in without a hitch - except for one tab. Had to reach my arm around and over the exhaust to push from the back side. WE HAVE ENGAGEMENT!!
In the end, the new unit fits perfectly and looks great.
Glad I tackled the job and always enjoy the challenge of doing things myself.
Good Luck!!
