    I am trying to find out what this part on my 2018 Three Touring Model is called. The dealership says it's a "chin guard" but that's not its name. Thank you!

    Yes, it’s called a bumper filler, but not that one.

    Try #7 on this page?

    Nope, second look at the parts page and I don’t think that’s it… that’s just an insert that goes above the part needed.

    I think the car is a 2018 Three, but the profile car listed is not the same. I don't think a Prime Three Touring was made in the US.

    Extra part to be crunched on the concrete parking curb stop.

    Suggestions for cool ways to cover it up - it did scratch - are most welcome!

    It did get really scuffed up. Suggestions for covering it up are most welcome!

    This is what Plasti-Dip paint was meant for.

    You can clean up the rough parts with a fine file and sandpaper, then use a product like Black Again to restore the black color.

    Isn't the part actually painted black? Will that still work?

    I'll have to try that on the forward under-engine tray. Thanx!

    If it's the same type of plastic used for the under-engine tray, my guess is that it will probably work. It's worth a try.
