Hit an animal, minor damage, need help finding a couple parts!

Hit an animal last night and it did some damage to the front of the car. I was able to pop the bumper back out (very minor cracking), removed the grille, and cleaned it up. It also pushed my fog light in a bit, I will get into that once I fix the grille and active cruise control cover.

Can anyone find these parts for me? I've searched Tischer's site but couldn't find them. I need the lower left grille and that cover peice that is busted out.

Thanks guys!

Check with your local dealer for the part #s and then check in with Tischer or United for the parts.

I recently had to replace one of the covers as well. The cover was $16 plus paint. Yeah, that headache of having it painted is included.

The lower mesh grill can be had for $10 plus depending on where you can find it.
Time to throw on a front aero spoiler ..... more than justifiied now!

Are you serious they don't come pre-painted..?

And only 1 week out before the big texas meet, I probably won't have it done by then. I'll still be there rocking the ghetto fab though.

Right on bro!
By the way, it looks like you lost the "frame" piece that sits within the bumper for the cover to fasten to. It may be a separate piece but, I'm not sure. I ended up foregoing that piece and gluing the newly painted cover in place. Works like a charm.

Less than a week ............ !!!
