anybody do a rocket bunny V1 diffuser install?

i just bought a Rocket bunny v1 rear diffuser and i understand that you have to cut the stock reverse light out to make it fit. I am a little confused about how it fastens to the stock bumper cover. Double sided tape plus rivets?
if any one has any input on this or any pics on an install please share .

Other than cutting the reverse light you will also have to drill where the top 3 bolts go on the diffuser and on the sides of the bumper (2 holes for each side). No double sided tape, maybe rivets but I suggest lock nuts and bolts.

Allen key bolts, they look good on everything.

If I do recall properly, take off the stock reverse lamp, cut the insulation on the reverse lamp wire, wire the LED reverse light into the stock reverse lamp wire, electric tape wherever you mated the two wires together, voila.

I am very interested in this install as I have been looking at getting this for my car. Can you do me a favor and take a picture of it on the ground before you install it. And of course pictures of the install.
