Hey BigBoss, I need to remove my diffuser and I have noticed that there are two pin type clips I need to remove which seems easy but how do I remove the two clips from the top of the Difusser. Do I need to access these clips from the boot?

I use four 3 ton, 4-poster chassis stands. These are available from supercheap for under $160. Buy 4 of them...

I've got a 3T jack. I place a piece of ironwood, cut to approximately 1.6M length on the jack, line it up to the door sill on one side of the car. From there, I can raise the car up 500mm.

I set the jacks onto chassis hard points and protect those points with pieces of heavy duty rubber conveyer belting. This stops the chassis having too much point-load and damaging the surface.

Then, you goto the other side and repeat. In about 10 minutes, you have the car sitting safely on stands, approximately 500mm from the ground.
