Because as I understand it the rear bumper on the Sport is made up from an inner and outer skin and therefore different to the other models meaning that the Parking Sensor is not possible to retrofit.

It may be possible but you'd need to take the bumper off to check.

Skoda say it's not possible to fit them to a Fabia vRS but I've done a few.

If I am right this is the Sport rear bumper ?koda Accessories
and it says it can be fitted with parking sensors, ( Information: Suitable for Hatch only. Compatible with both the Skoda Towing Bracket and Factory Rear Parking Sensors. )
and I hope this is true as I am getting that bumper fitted to my new L&K which comes with the sensors
