Part number or link to a front bumper plastic retainer

Hi,

I am looking for a front bumper plastic retainer for a 2013 E350. I search for a long time to no avail. Any pointers to a link or a part number is very much appreciated. The red arrow on the image below is the retainer location.



Thanks.

Check with dealer parts for coupling part #.

Thanks konigstiger for the suggestion, but I don't see the correct part in the kit. I added 3 close ups that might help.







Thanks.

I just looked at the identical part on my car. No part number printed on it, but I bet if you pull the rivet from the other headlight you can get an acceptably close match from your local auto parts store. Doesn't have to be a twist lock; I bet a center pin removeable rivet of the proper length and diameter will work just fine. Get two if you want symmetry.

Thanks rapidoxidation for looking up the part on your car. I don't have a reference rivet to use to purchase a similar aftermarket one as both sides are missing. I had some body work couple years ago that required the bumper to be removed, so most likely they were not tightened up properly when reassembled. I may have to bite the bullet and get them from the dealer, assuming they are sold individually.

Thanks konigstiger for posting the image that identified the part. At least now I know what to call it. I'll check with the dealer and report back.

If I may ask, how proud of that part were they? (how much $$?)

Actually, I was the proud one for finding the part. It was $6.
