Damaged my front Bumper

I'm so bummed.
I pulled into a parking lot space that had a high concrete curb in the front of the space and hit the concrete pretty hard. I was afraid to look at the damage. It could have been worse, but I am still upset with myself. The damage is mostly to the chorme(plastic chrome) at the bottom of the sport package bumper. Does anyone know if the bumper is one piece or if that chrome spoiler on the bottom can be replaced separately?
Thanks.

I was going through the Brabus website for W205 parts and saw that they have this part in carbon fiber as a replacement to the Sport trim. So i am guessing that it can be replaced without touching the whole bumper ! You should be good there. By the way, now that you are replacing it, check the Brabus website too.

That lower part snaps in and out. When I did all the painting of the trim on our car, that part comes off in 3 pieces.

If it is damaged, you should be able to get a replacement, I don't think it is too expensive.
