If having parking sensors?
My baby
rear soon to with defuser
Matte glossy paint
Anybody know if having parking sensors if there is 1 plug to unplug somewhere or do I need unplug each one by one first?
Also got the GPS guess I got a lot in the way
Fully equiped = more hazzle for sure but have to Work for be able to enjoy right
Super super great DIY, but isnt it really possible to Mount the defuser without removing the bumber wont the bumper become more flexible at the corners with the old plastic defuser thingy removed? Anyone can confirm this got the tools to do this alone just wondering if really worth removing bumper, for me no problem got the front lip mounted no bumper removed looks great but defuser aint the flexible because is glassfiber inside only outside is carbon.
Is the matte but had it painted Black gloss to match rest of car think came out nice, front bumper mesh and fog light mesh painted Black more Deep Black came out nice I think

Once sliding of bumber there is a main connector for the sensors just like the one shown in the DIY easy just need remember if got parking sensors you must disconnect 2 connectors.
For the GPS MAP CD easy 2 torn bolts the slide backwards out for the way. Air tank other side same.
And pls remember sealing putty (buty) the washer/bolts on the rear bolts
