Hey all...does anybody know if this type of system can be mounted under & behind the bumpers? I have a problem; I push front lips over curbs & parking blocks and I'd like to curb that issue . The thing is, I would like to have the sensors not visible to passers-by. I know they aren't THAT conspicuous..I just would rather not have them visible at all. I like the clean look.

Here's the kit I'm looking at: http://www.sportsimportsltd.com/8sefrreauvip.html

Thanks in advance.

how long have you been driving?

 

bBTed has that setup, but in white. it's fairly noticable, but not ugly, imo. They gotta be out there or else the system couldn't work.

I've got this total fear of knocking my front lip off. Even tho I don't usually get too close, it worries me. It won't be a scraping of the bottom like in the minivan, it'll mess things up.

One thing that might help: have a friend stand at the corners of your car while you sit inside. It's good to get a feel of where the edges of the bumpers and stuff really end. After that, try to mentally buffer it by a foot or so.

And for Pete's sake, DON'T park near me!

 

heyheyhey. It's not that I can't drive or park!!
Guess I phrased that post incorrectly. It's just that I've brushed the underside of my car's lip a couple of times in the past. And since the xb will be sitting lower, I want to make sure that I never brush anything while parking.
The 240 is a toy. So I'm not too concerned about bumps and bruises on it. The box is gonna be "mah p.i.m.p. ryde, byatch" So I just want to make sure I have all the angles covered.

 

just back into spots. the rear is not as low as the front.

 

try them http://www.astrodoneps.com/index.html. they are in the uk but the sensors supposedly mounted behind the bumper so no holes are visible.

 

haha!!! manong, you're so funny! i may need that too! i almost ruin my front lip last sunday parking at the church in National City(San diego), 5mm lower then my lip are screwed.
