I think I got jacked!




I'm not actually sure what its called but it's the piece on the front bumper thats between the fog lights. I'm pretty sure it just didn't fall off cuz I think I would have run it over if it did. Plus, I'm positively sure that I didn't smack into anything. So it leaves me to think that someone yanked it off the car. So right now I'm really :hmm: I'm pissed but really confused. Does anyone know what that piece is called and how much would it be to replace it? Where could I get one?


Also, I'll try to take a pic of it later to show what it looks like now.

Uh, that sucks. That little front bumper trim strip is like $400 plus painting. MB is sure proud of that piece that falls off a lot. On the next one, there are eyelets that you can use black zip ties to secure it to the bumper so it will prevent that piece from falling off or growing legs.

problem is solved.....thanks to a response on a different forum. I remembered that I hit one of those curb things in the parking lot of a cvs near my house yesterday and never really thought about it until your response. I went back right now and with luck it was just sitting there. I know I'm extremely lucky and now I feel like a dumbass for hitting the curb thing in the parking lot.
