New front bumper winglets, lower slats. Much improved.

Here are a couple photos of the before and after of the added front bumper slats, trim extensions. They really look great in person and provide a better width or substance to the front end. A quality built piece along with a precision fitment. These are held in by quality double sided tape which is in place when received.










I have no affiliation with the seller but thought I would pass along the modification change and eBay link below. They are available in gloss black or carbon fiber. Priced around $75 a set.

I just added the smaller inserts to complete the aggressive appearance ...

I pulled the trigger and ordered a set .
I received the last week , installed them .
It's amazing how well they fit .
The only problem I have since I installed them (I don't recall having that issue before) is sometime I have the left parking sensor going off when I come to a stop . I will say more often when colder or humid . Usually happens few time and than more after . Totally random ,some days no issue .
Do you have this issue ?
Is there a calibration for those sensor ?
I would like to find out before removing them and see if I still have this issue .
Might be a coincidence too !

Sorry about the delay in response... I haven’t had any issues with the front bumper sensors going off after installing these extensions. I see the sensors in the black area near the added parts but no zero negative concerns in my case. Perhaps the dealer can assist by checking for a faulty sensor? Cheers
