I've tried the search to no avail, so.....while I was replacing my rear bumper reflector with a lighted one, I had to remove the rear cover. Found out that this part was made of cardboard with felt. Does anybody know if some company makes a more solid one? Because if this keeps getting wet, it won't last long.

How did you remove the fake vents to replace the reflector. Dis you have to remove the rear bumper at all. I also have a 2020 so I need to know how to remove the fake vents. Thanks and looks good.

Pretty sure it is made out of a plastic composite which doesn't absorb water unless they changed it for 2020 and newer which I doubt because cars are meant to get wet. I drive my 2018 as a daily here in Seattle so its constantly getting wet and I have yet to see it break down in any way.

Edit: Just realized this was a very old thread
