Park Tronic Bumper Question

Hey guys,

Im looking for rear bumpers right now and i realize that certain bumpers come with park tronic sensor holes so i'm wondering if i do not have park tronic, is there anyway i can fill those holes up so they will look as if they were park tronic and what would be the part # for them so i can look at the price.

Also on the side not, does anybody have any recommendation for a good body shop in brooklyn? I need some honest trust worthy people that are affordable.

Still need some help on this, does any one have an idea if there is a way to retrofit the sensors. I want to pick up the amg bumper but it has the damn holes so i'm wondering if they can be fitted with some kind of pins.

The sensors look like this. I guess you could have the sensors installed and not hooked up. You would also need the brackets if your going to install the sensors

Do you have an idea of how much it would cost to get the sensors and hook them up? Because if its going to be anytwhere in $200-$500 then its not worth it for me to even get the bumper with the park tronic. I just found a great deal that comes with all the brackets but i just do not know if i want to deal with the whole hassle.

I would think that you can get the shop doing the install to put something in there to fill them up... kinda like when people go for the euro shaved side marker look.

The sensors themselves are around $60...I saw them on eBay for around $40..Figure you need 4 or 5 sensors for the rear bumper. You would also need control unit, switch, wiring etc..Don't know how much everything would come out to but I doubt it will be less than $500
