Parking sensor cover/cap replacement part ?

[Seth]

Anyone know how I might locate just this circular piece? I would like to avoid a trip to the dealership if possible. However the parking sensor is messed up too so I might have to go in.

Oh man, sorry to see that. What's the story? I hope you didn't walk out and find it that way.

Hit debris on the highway, came flying out from underneath the car in front of me and I was in the express lane so there was no space for me to swerve around. Not entirely sure what it was. I actually thought it was going to be worse based on the sound it made hitting my car

Crisis averted (lol). It's all still there... now I'm just trying to figure out if there's a way to reseat the sensor without taking the front end apart. Seems like no

You could try a reboot of the car’s computer by disconnecting the battery maybe? My battery was dead because the PPF/Ceramic guys had the doors open for so long. All sorts of sensors and maintenance lights were on until the battery had fully recharged from driving over an hour or so. Once that happened, when I restarted the car everything was back to normal.

The plastic clip that holds it in likely broke. 99% chance bumper has to come off.

I have some pics from my carbon dive plane upgrade. That sensor is on the face of the inner bumper structure, so you not only have to remove the entire bumper, you'll have to separate that inner structure. I wish I had taken pics of the inner structure when I had that apart, but you can see the inside of the overall bumper and some of the other sensors in the lower corner. There's a good chance some of the other inner plastic structures are cracked and damaged. You might be able to repair those with JB Weld Plastic Bonder. That worked well for attaching some of the plastic supports for the dive planes. Actually, better than the original plastic welds.
