Default headlight washer nozzle cover

anybody got a extra right hand washer nozzle cover, clip and nozzle for an 02 X type?
replaced headlight lamps, had to drop bumper on right side to get tools out (dropped them) and lamp back in ( fat fingers).
I know they will have to be painted, mine is phoenix (carnival) red code CGL.
Any help would be great.

You will probably in up at the dealer for them. I believe the last ones I order went out the door at around $55, which seems awfully high for a light piece of plastic.

Ken's right. I had to replace one not long after I bought my car. They're about $50 from the dealer, and come with a tubular part of the nozzle in addition to the cover.
As for paining it, go to a local car paint shop. I picked up a pint of factory matched color and a small aerosol can with a jar attached to the bottom of (fill the jar, and a tube coming from the bottom of the can sits in the paint, for a small scale self contained spray gun) for about $40.
I removed the other side and reinforced the attachment points with some 60 second expoxy.

Thanks for the info.

It is high for a piece of plastic, but supply and demand is a wonderful thing when you are supplying!
