Need help w/ Shadowline Diffuser!

Is there a trick to getting them on? The clips seem difficult to attach.

Talking about the rear diffueser?

The clips were kind of a hassle, what you need to be careful of is that the clips on the diffuser do not miss the hole and bend downwards. Once they bend downwards it gets more difficult to line up the clips properly.

I started with the outermost clips and I then screwed the outermost bolts into the bottom of the diffuser to hold everything in place. Then carefully push the bumper in right above the clip hole while trying to force the clip into the hole, start from the outside and move inwards.
