I know, its crazy. Don't ask. I'm kind of upset about it too.
I hacked up the lines on the rear abs lines. The ABS light is obviously on. What are my options for making it go away? I'd like to thing I can solder them, but I think they might be too fussy of a sensor to resolder.
Has anyone else done this?

Replace and be done with it. You f'ed up...consider it a lesson learned. Wouldn't try soldering it. .

Soldering will always work (the sensor and electronics can't tell the wire has been soldered); the problem is longevity. You'd have to do a very good job resoldering the wires, and then protecting them with heat-shrink tubing with an internal adhesive coating so that moisture doesn't get in there and corrode the wires.
I'm not that familiar with the ABS wires going to the sensors; do they have one wire inside, or two?
The best and easiest option is just to replace them, obviously. But if that's too expensive, you can solder them, as long as you wrap them up properly.

Thus the reason I said to just replace it
