There are no airbag sensors in that area. An airbag sensor is generally an accelerometer which responds to rapid deceleration and sends a signal to fire the airbag and is part of the airbag unit.

That's a funny video, but you do realize that it's not real, right?
Air bag sensors don't work like that...

Backing into parked cars and closed garage doors?? You guys must suck at driving! j/k!!
I've only ever backed into one parked car in my life! I was driving my dad's van, and the car I bumped was some old 60's yacht. Left a little dent in the van's bumper, but the old car was only left with a clean spot on it's bumper!

Congratulations. I think everyone at 986forum should honor you with the award as "best driver here".

Hi,
Sorry to hear of your troubles. The only thing I've ever hit was the Rev Limiter... 
I think we need some photos of your assistant pointing out the damages, be sure she checks underneath!...
Happy Motoring!... Jim

Now when you get that car all repaired and looking nice, it wil need to be detailed, right?
Are you girl friends going to help?
Can you send up pix?
Thanks in advance!

Why are you driving a sports car with sandals? That is just not safe at all by anymeans.
