I don't want to completely thread-jack the op's thread, so I'll just quickly comment on some of the stuff the video covered. ( I should just make my own thread, but I keep forgetting to get decent pictures of the truck)
1) I have a '24, so the end sensor plugs don't affect me, but after seeing what ADD supplied as a 'solution' isn't that good at all.
2) The sensors you have to remove from that trim panel and how they want you to install them is bad design choice. I ended up using better double face tape and then put JB Weld epoxy on them and it's held up decent so far. If it starts giving me trouble, I'll most likely look into boring out the holes just big enough to fit one of those sensor retainers he had. (something that shouldn't need to be done with the cost of the bumper)
3) How the bumper is bolted on could've been approached better and that's something I'm going to look into as I get the time, but it's fairly stout given how you mount it, but how it'll hold up in an accident/collision or brush with a rock trail crawling is unknown.
