Default headlamp washer cap missing..

i need to find the part number for the headlamp washer cover along with the bracket attached to it..

i had my front bumper painted earlier, i believe the guys at the bodyshop messed up something. i used the headlight washer when i was driving today and the passsenger side cap is gone.

i will post pics very soon.

would it be expensive to replace?

thanks!

actually nevermind. after searching the street i was traveling on near my house, i found it. luckily no car ran it over lol..

its very easy to put it on reverse and it WILL appear to be locked in place, obviously it isnt. once i've played with it a bit, i got it on right and its very secure now.. After looking at it, it seems the silver (my body color) cap is one piece, and its screwed on to another small black plastic piece which clips on to the washer spray tip. doesnt look to be an expensive part at all b/c its not the washer mechanism itself. i wonder if this tiny piece will come pre-painted from the factory, otherwise, its a huge headache losing this piece.

damn that bodyshop.

Awesome! Gotta love it when things like that happen

Iqraam, the headlamp washer is located at the top of bumper in front of the headlight. There would be a raised square, smaller than 2 x 2, painted to match the car. It raises when you touch the control inside, forward of the gear shift. The headlamp washers also come on if you put on the windshield washer with the headlights on.
