Default Bumped Bumper!!!

Some ignorant idiot has 'bumped' by bumper at the rear, I didn't notice for a while, and he has knocked off the plastic cover for the tow hook connector at the rear. Anyone know cost and places to get a new one from?
cheers.

They fall out after the slightest knock, usually down the road.

When you get a new one (expensive!), put a blob of poxy resin on its devil's tail, so it can't come out of the eyelet.
