M5 Front Bumper temp sensor reading high

[jetpilot10]

Ok, my temp sensor worked fine before doing the M5 front bumper conversion. Now, when driving home in the afternoons, granted its Texas, i get readings of 110 to 116 degrees. I know that the M5 fender liners put the sensor closer to the road, but is this normal? How do M5's compensate for the lower positioned temp sensor? Anyone else with the M5 front bumper experience a problem like this?

Mine when haywire... I just replaced it with a new one... Like $15 or so.

I recently did the conversion but I have not noticed any odd readings from the temperature sensor.
