Default Help With Rear Diffuser Removal..

Hey guys, I bought my IS250 very gently used but it has a few quirks about it that I notice that no else seems too.. So long story short, it seems like maybe the clips that run along the top of the diffuser where the plastic meets the paint have come undone or are broken. I'm wondering if anyone can give me some tips for an easy removal so I can see what the deal is. Anyone ever remove this piece? Or has anyone else noticed a gap between the bumper and the plastic? Thanks for the help guys/gals!

You have to remove the entire bumper.

I ordered a Seibon rear and thought it'd be an easy removal just for that piece but it's not. If I recall, there are 4 bolts up top once you peel back the interior pieces, but don't quote me on that. I had a Lexus shop do mine.
