Will this bumper interfere with sensors or parking assist?

This is a factory-profile bumper cover with no pre-cut sensor holes or electrical provisions. If your vehicle has rear sensors, you'll need to assess clearance or drill cutouts during installation to accommodate them.

Does the Vader 2 style change the overall bumper depth or overhang?

Yes—the Vader 2 profile adds lower-section volume and extends the bottom line further than stock. Verify trailer hitch or tow hook clearance before final installation if you use towing equipment.

What prep work is needed before paint?

The bumper arrives in raw FRP condition, which means it's sanded and sealed for direct primer application. Inspect for any shipping damage, scuff any high spots lightly, and wipe with a tack cloth before priming.
