Evening all,
I am picking my EDP rear bumper up from the spray shop tomorrow and want to get it fitted ASAP but before I dropped it off I tried swapping the parking sensors over and came across what may be a problem?
When I fitted the PDC sensor into the EDP bumper they weren't flush, now I don't know if they are supposed to be or not?
If you look into the back of the bumper at the sensor holders there are 2 half moon tabs at the top but none at the bottom, this is what is causing the bottom of the sensor to protrude through the bumper further than the top.

Hi Have recently fitted genuine body kit and had exactly the same problem . Checked with parts dept there are no other sensors fitted . So I went with it and yes they don't sit flush but not noticeable when fitted to vehicle

Thanks chris, think I will just fit it and see.
It's annoying as my next door neighbour has a my12 with the EDP fitted from the factory but he's away at the moment so I can't check.
I have just finished fitting my new tow bar(a lot easier than I expected) so will be going to pick the stuff up from the paint shop shortly, I'm like a kid at Christmas.

Build the exhaust kit on a bench before you install it after fitting the bumper, makes it easier... Also, use alot of copper grease on the exhaust nuts bolts etc as when you need to remove it it will come apart again... Have you bought the working tails or the blanks? SC kit works TDV8 blanks/dummy tails

Oh and yes the parking sensors do fit like yours have...

Craig thanks for the reply.

I have the bumper 95% finished the sensor look fine, I am struggling with the exhaust finishers, I seem to have a lot of bits left over which I cant see how they fit anywhere.
Also on the drivers side where the towing loop is I can't get the finisher on as the loop is in the way?
Any advice much appreciated, I will post some pics tomorrow as I am just off out for the day.
Thanks!

Forgot to say I have the tdv8 finishers with the blanks.

The towing loop should fit inside the top left corner (as you look at it from behind)

Have you fitted the passenger side yet? If not, do that one first making sure all the torq screws/bolts fit into the bumper then you can copy what you did on the drivers/harder side...
