You can probably get the 3IS sensors and wiring them to the 2IS sensor wiring but they aren't in the same locations for detection. The 2IS only used two sensors under the headlight. The 3IS uses 4 sensors (two under H/L and two in the grill).

But the two 2is sensors should fit the grill location right? I just don’t wanna drill new holes in the bumper

Just got my bumper, I'm excited to get started with the mods to make it work.
Thanks to those that have done it and posted about it.
