I hit a pheasant the other day and it took out the black plastic tow eye cover... Really smashed it too! A good excuse to get me something a little more solid!

I was surprised when I looked at the front of the car that the only damage was the tow eye cover, hitting the deer full on at 60 mph was expecting at the very least cracked bumper and grill, not a mark only fur from deer on number plate and towbar from running over it  William

I'm sure I have one in the garage sitting as well.
Have sump guard so it's no longer needed.
