Try doing a search on the board. Vader did it on his and he wrote it up. I don't think a 3M double sided tape would hold it

Vader has the factory C63 diffuser. The factory one is perfect fitment and uses tabs that clip in.

Get the brackets. Cheap and you won't need tape.

The brackets don't hold the upper portion in place though. I ended up drilling screws into mine (that are black so are not even noticeable). But I highly suggest if your buying the CF diffuser to get one with the clips on it such as the OEM C63 one.

i did exactly what micropower did (great minds think alike). when you take off the original diffuser you can see where the clips are suppose to clip on, they look like oval holes going across the bumper i just drilled holes on the diffuser to match up with the holes and put the screws threw each hole( the hole on the diffuser and the rear bumper). and i went to advance auto parts to get black caps to put on the screws, and they blended perfectly..

Definitely can't use 3M tape to hold it on, it seems like it needs to be secured very securely with screws. Those *******s on ebay should have molded the clips on it! lol
