External temperature sensor knocked out?
Does anyone know what sensor was knocked out in this pic?

Something came off a truck in front and went under the car, but apparently it hit the bumper pretty good. My guess from searching the forum is temp sensor or parking sensor ...

Here's a head start.........look under front bumper, bumper and components....eventually it gets down to color choice.

Thx a LOT. If this is something I can do myself vs the stealership that'll save some money for sure.

I know someone with the exact same cover missing from their front bumper ... the dealership quoted $50 for the part and couldn't quote labor over the phone.

Does anyone know whether this piece is relatively easy to install (snap in, etc.)?

The website Sportstick sent quoted me $19.50 but said the piece doesn't come painted ... so you may have to head to the dealership anyway.

I've never bought one of these, but it's odd they said that, as their own website menu offers the part in different colors?!
