Aftermarket Brabus Diffusor Problem

He guys. I installed the Brabus Diffusor on my C205 2016 Coupe. But i got a problem the the tips are somehow hanging and are not straight. Here a photo so you can see how they look. Maybe someone of you got the problem already and can help me out.

i did the install and it looks pretty good now. But the next problem i got is that my Parking Sensors dont work. They beep the whole time with 4 Yellow dots and the jump to full red too. We already tried to modify a bit the diffusor where the sensors are mounted but it wont help. I really dont know what i could do now as they worked with the C43 Look Diffusor.

same here but I think I pushed the sensor in too far, mine are sort of flush and they should be angled up a bit ( Bottom of sensor is almost flush and the top set back a bit \ ) the c43 diffuser I had previously stopped them from going all the way in. I haven't fixed mine hasn't bothered me that much and I don't use the self park feature.

its probably just the angle they're sitting at plus the Brabus one has more of a curve to it at sensor location so sensor point downward , where as the c43 has the sensor sort of pointing straight back.
I back up or down a slope sets it off every time.

How is it supposed to work then. Damn if i would have known that i could easily get me just a good looking C63 diffusor where the sensors would work. I dont know what to do really 😂
