The easy way to remove the rear diffuer is to remove the rear bumper, there are a lot of clips that are hard to get to otherwise. See attached instructions.
I tried doing it with the bumper on and it's nearly impossible. You have to get in there and squeeze the tabs on the clips, otherwise it will not come off.
I can confirm that you can remove the stock diffuser with the bumper still on but it will be a pain though. The middle clips were the most stubborn for me so I worked from the outside clips going in if that makes sense.

How about reinstalling the clips? Was that much easier than taking them off?
I spent about 30 mins trying to remove the diffuser with the bumper on, then noticed I could not install the clips back on if I took them out, and promptly buttoned it back up for another day.
