Walmart outdoor mounting tape & o'reilly 3m molding tape UPC 51131036154 are basicly the same material. You will need to sand the inside for the sensors. 008” and cut the key way with a jigsaw blade. I did both without power tools in 30 min. Shavings looked like parmesan cheese. Lol

love the 3dp work, but why did you need these? did the oem spacers not fit?

Great idea to recess the sensors, but what is the maximum angle the sensors operate? If they are too deep your sensors will always be "on" because they'll be picking up the side wall of the "well" they are countersunk into.
So my guess is that angle will determine both the depth of the sensor and the diameter of the opening at the bumper, Perhaps a conical shape, smaller I.D. at the sensor and flaring out at the bumper.
Relay box fit perfectly under the headlight with the extra hardware. Caught lower bolt on bracket and removed plastic rivet that held rubber to use that factory hole to secure top of relay. Took two nuts and a longer bolt from the kit to make a nice stand off.

Just going through an install of this bumper on my 2012. It looks like the Premium bumper has the holes for the parking sensors, but the Classic does not.
I looked at the photos for the Premium bumper and replicated the sensor placement on my classic bumper.
for some reason, 2 of my parking sensors were hot glued to the sensor holders and bumper and I couldn't get them apart. I ordered the parts below as replacements. Will report back once everything gets installed.

Wow, didn't know the sensors and mounts were that cheap!
Great to know, Thanks!

Quick update now that the bumper is installed. The 3rd party sensors and sensor holders are doing well.
I used a Harbor Freight Hercules #4 step bit (item number 64649) to drill out the holes.
