428i diffuser removal

So I'm attempting to do the 435i exhaust conversion got the exhaust but can't figure out where would the diffuser go. It appears to be one solid piece on my 428. Do I need to remove to entire bumper?

Base bumper does not have a removable diffuser.

Your cheapest/easiest solution is to find a template (Im positive there is a brand name unit out there) and cut existing bumper. Cant remember name off the top of my head...

Or the "right way" to do it, would be to buy the M-Sport bumper with removable diffuser and have it painted/installed.
