I don't think the loom would be different...

Many people have done the bumper change as a DIY (and BMW used to do the changes at the VPC) so how could it be different?

so more than likely its just the sensors that are different then? If this is correct then i assume that the sensors just snap right on whether its the bigger or smaller one

Someone else should be able to confirm things for sure but I don't remember ever hearing about different size PDC holes. Are you sure about this?

from pre-LCI to LCI PDC sensors there was a size change, but as long as the MY's are the same, I don't see the PDC sensor sizes changing between sport and non-sport
