What is that part (that I’ve circled)?

I was just cleaning the car and pushed it down on the corner by accident slightly. I’d love to get it back to the correct position but no idea what it is.

It’s not the washers for the lights as that’s above it. And the parking sensor is the little round sensor. And that part isn’t on the other side of the car either. So what is it?

I do have park assist (self parking) but if it’s an extra sensor why does it move and why isn’t it on both sides?!
 
Towing hook I would imagine

Yeah mate its a cover for when it needs towed which hopefully never needs to be used lol.

So does it pop out? So I can sort out the uneven corner now...

Probably need to push it back from inside the bumper or completely remove it and reinsert it. Probably on plastic tabs.

I did exactly the same thing!! Let me know how you get on
 
Yeah it does pop out. Looks like yours has somehow gone in further than it should have so may be tricky.
 
Isn’t it in the owners manual how to take it out?

So I checked the manual. If you push down quite hard and firm it pops out. It’s not possible to get it flush again but at least it’s not actually damaged.

It goes back flush. Mine has been in and out a few times when on track.

Don’t push it !! It’s a secret button, that will deploy a rath of mutant space monkeys from another dimension. . .

Are they the same mutant monkeys that work at the stealers ?
I suspect they actually make them at the plant in Hungary and warp them via a space and time portal

That shall remain a question only a chosen few must know. . .
