I ordered a couple new covers for under the bumper / engine, ones you remove to get at the fog lights, PN's 51717033753 and 4. It looked like the po had caught them on something. One of the main reason I got them was because the rubber delfector/lip was completely ripped off one of them. Well got the parts today and discover the rubber "thingy" isn't on them. I think I looked at every schematic on RealOEM and can't find the part number. Upon close inspection the rubber piece is fused / glued to the plastic, is it possible that it is suppose to be one piece? Gold star to anyone who can track down the PN for the rubber piece.

Thanks in advance for your assistance

Looks like I might have answered my own question......I'm a bone head, ordered the wrong parts. 51-75-7-119-854 and 51-75-7-119-853, the parts I ordered, are for cars with the the poor road package. Can't really see what else would be different on the parts for poor roads.

Looks like I should have ordered 51-71-7-033-754 and 51-71-7-033-753

Need to apply the measure twice cut once philosophy when ordering parts.

Why don't you get some rubber strip or other suitable flexible material and secure it to the parts you have?

That's what I have been working off of, unfortunately if you don't read carefully you end up ordering the wrong part.

Yeah, might try that. I figure if they leave it off for the poor road package it can't be too critical.
