Wald Diffuser Install

Wald Diffuser Install
Does anybody have the Wald rear diffuser and installed it themselves? The Japanese instructions were useless but the diagram was pretty straight forward. I put it on the rear bumper cover, aligned it properly, and then taped it all down so it wouldn't move. I then drilled the two holes where the reflectors go. Now for the life of me i cant get the stupid shaft of the reflector to line up properly for the nut. The nut is sooo close to the actual bumper as well its nearly impossible to get it on. The only way I can see of getting this thing on properly is to take the whole rear bumper cover off, mount the diffuser, then put it all back on.. Any ideas?

It looks like im going to do that as well. The only thing im worried about is that the screw ends are going to hit the actual bumber and i wont be able to get the bumper back on properly. Did you have any trouble aligning the exhaust tips when the whole piece went back on the car?

Members have talked about "smoking" the reflectors. Are they just using some kind of film or are they actually baking the things...

Can we see pictures of the fitment if you don't mind? The WALD diffuser looks bad *** on your car! Definitely a great purchase.....now you have got me thinking I want it on mine.

The reflectors are actually what hold the diffuser in place. The reflector has a screw shaft on the end of it which goes through the diffuser, through the bumper, and tightened with a nut. Its that nut i was referring to in my earlier posts. Without taking the bumper off its almost impossible to get that nut on its so close to the real bumper. Even if you could i don't see how you'd get a ratchet head in there..
