Default rear bumper removal

Hey everyone. I just bought a skipper rear diffuser for my 2015 is350 fsport and apparently you have to remove the rear bumper to install. I got most the bolts out I could see I'm just scared to tug to hard cause I don't wanna Crack the bumper. Does anyone have a tutorial on removing the rear bumper??

you may have to get behind the bumper (through the trunk padding/insulation to remove the bumper along with the bumper mounts in order to unscrew the bumper from the bumper mounts. Just looking at it during my sub/amp install, looks to be simple. The rest should just be 8 or 10mm bolts and plastic tabs. Look at the rear bumper diagram on seawell lexus's website, it'll give you a good idea for removal.

There was a post on here a while back that showed all the bumper screws needed to be taken out for removal. Sorry I don't have time to go back and find the thread.
