Default Front Bumper questions

I just traveled from NJ to Houston, Texas in my '02 OBW. It didn't miss a beat the entire way. However, i guess I was a bit tired and when I stopped at a rest area, i accidently crunched the front bumber on a parking stop. It just chewed up the bottom a little. Also put the "panel" on the passenger side below the headlight out of whack.

Question 1. What is that removable panel for?

Question 2. How to remove and replace it?

Thanks, guys.

Hi. I believe the removable cover you refer to is the tow hook cover.

Thanks, porc. Now, any idea how it is attached? I have to remove mine and reinstall to make it line up right again. Is it fastened with a bolt or just a friction fit? I can't seem to remove it.
