Help with my M5 Replica Rear Bumper
Hey Everyone,
I recently purchased an entire kit from a local supplier in Vaughan, ON.
Front/Rear Bumpers, Front Lip, Side Skirt and Fog Lights.
Everything fits great so far but i'm having an issue with the type of PDC sensors for the rear bumper. My car is an 2008 LCI 535i with no sports options. The front replica bumper took the original PDC sensors but the rears want a different sensor. The holes are correct @ 18mm front and back. The issue I think is that it wants the factory sports bumper PDC sensors?
The ones i have for front and back are the same. They are short with the electrical connector sticking out the side. I tried to put the original sensors from the factory rear bumper into the replica m5 bumper but they are too short as well as the electrical connector prevents it from sliding into the socket more than 1/3 of the way.
I assume these are all the same bumpers so I am hoping someone with experience who has done this modification before can advise me on my issue.
Thanking you all in advance.
