Chrome Delete Sensor Issues

This site may earn commission on affiliate links.
Hi! Just did chrome delete on my 2017 Model S 100D. Noticed after I pulled into garage, that front sensors weren’t working very well; never had that happen before (but my vehicle was also wet with sleet/rain . . . )

Would a chrome delete cover any sensors? Where are they (they are just those little round things, right? Is there one in the recess with chrome shelves by fog light? Looks like they got a little sloppy there and covered part of the black part behind the chrome shelves)

Thx!

The black part behind the ‘chrome shelves’ is actually a vent that can open and close so the car can bring in outside air to cool the battery. You may want to have them touch that up a bit as it could block the airflow when the vent is open.

As far as the sensors go, the parking sensors should just be the little round ultrasonic sensors. I don’t believe they are near any chrome.
