Default Part number and source for tow hook cover

Had the car precisely 2 weeks and some bar steward has already bumped it while parking. Doesn't look like they have done any damage other then a tiny scuff which will polish out but they have popped the tow hook cover out the back bumper.

Anyone know the best bet for a replacement?

Is it worth trying breakers or will they want to sell the whole bumper?

or shall I just call Honda?

Excelent, thanks s2uk.

Is it common for them to go missing? I guess you for one have lost one! I am amazed that it fell out as there is hardly a mark on the car.

Yes, I believe these go missing quite often, I'm sure it's a conspiracy by Honda to charge

when you get a new one put some tape around th eend that pops into the little hole, it helps it stay in a bit better.

Around the whole circumference of the cap?

The clips look really sturdy, I find it hard to see how the thing manages to fall out at all!

Noooo around the plastic clip thing it seems difficult, but it comes out easy enough!!

On mine the clearance between the back on the bumper (cover plug) and the threaded tow hook point is so tight if I push on the bumber too hard (washing/polishing) it pushes the cover plug out!

Used to really annoy me till I realised what was happening. !
