Help fitting carbon diffuser

Need a little help, a few opinions. I bought a carbon fiber diffuser for my g coupe about a month or so ago from outcast garage. Talked with the guys over the phone and they did say they stopped listing this one because the fitment wasn't 100% but was about a 7/10. Even still I went ahead and ordered it. Fast forward to yesterday the weather has been shaping up so I finally got around to test fitting it. Only issue causing it not to fit perfect are the two areas I highlighted below, I need to shave/cut this area away, what would be the best way, to neatly do this ,should/ can I sand this area away? Included a bonus pic. Plan on having it clear bra'd on Tuesday.

A dremel was the best tool investment I've ever made. It has come in handy in several different situations. It will do both. Cutting and sanding.

Thanks jimmy, started looking into one of these last night but was worried that if I cut it , it may split the diffuser. Will look into getting one thanks man. May I ask what else do you use it for?

Outcast garage sells garbage eBay parts anyone can order. That's why the fitment is so horrible. A friend of mine bought a grill from them ends up being the same one on eBay for $60 that they resell for $120.

Wasn't aware of that, saw them as a vender here so I gave them a shot. It's okay though I'll have to make a small modification for it to fit properly.
