Replacing Front "Encapsulation"
Hi All,
I was changing oil and noticed the "front encapsulation" is cracked with some material missing. I remember hitting and dragging some road debris recently that was the likely cause. The part is 15 (51758064138) in the attached diagram. It is attached to the underside of the front bumper cover. It looks to be a straightforward replacement but wondering if there are any pointers or tips to be found here. Thanks for any help.

There's nothing tricky removing that front under shield. Just remove the multitudes of screws/expanding rivets and feed out.
