ive seen that yh, but thank you, its not no but thanks anyway :) , will drill the rivets out tomorrow dad told me about it after i take half my finger off lol

will buy a rivet gun so i can make sure they are secure when i refit them, just need to know how to fit the side covers on the rear bumper as mine are separate from the diffuser unlike the one in the vid

I didn't remove the bumper when I took the stock ZS defuser off & put the ST defuser on.
