Tonight while reversing into a car spot, I thought it'd be fun to hit a pole. 

I know it's a bad pic and I'll post a better one when I get a chance, but the valance is actually punctured just above the reflector (only got it replaced 1.5 months ago). Luckily there isn't any panel damage and most of the white paint came off with some plastic cleaner, although some of it will need buffing. The bumper itself is a little misaligned but that's only due to the pressure the warped valance is putting on it (I hope).
It would've helped if I had 2 reverse lights (it's easier to determine the distance judging by the light) but I simply misjudged the distance. Oh, and the parking sensors didn't come on at all
. The constant beep came on only after I hit the pole. I know it's called Park Assist, but they didn't assist me at all tonight. They're not faulty either - I tested them once I got home and they work fine.
My question is, how hard would it be to obtain a colour coded valance often found on the TFSI's as a replacement?
