I do not refer at the flow direct to bumper, but at the excessive curvature at the end of your diffuser.
The energy of flow, is to small for to follow the profile of diffuser...
Do you know the reserce by mitzubishi about the VG?
Mitzubishi has applyed the VG at the rear of roof for to direct the air flow down direction because, the rear window of lancer sedan is too angled and the flow distact from window.
Here's the research paper published by Mitsubishi
