Non-Fog Light Hole filler knocked out.

Hey everyone,

Last weekend I was attending a local auto-x clinic. I believe, after I hit a cone, that the plastic hole-filler dealio (I didn't get the fog lights) got knocked into the bumper cover and is just rolling around in there.

Does anyone have any suggestions as to get access to it? I just need, it appears, to snap it back into place. I was thinking if I remove the front portion of the fender liner, that might grant me the opening I need to get to it.

Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance!

I'll make it simple for you... just take off the bumper cover. It's really simple: just 8 bolts or something. Granted, they are all of various kinds and sizes , but it's really simple and you'll be able to get a look at the entire situation under there and have extremely easy access to the foglight area.

Actually, it's a fog light hole filler. A non-fog light hole filler will be somewhere else.
