[fuzzy]

This is part number 2-90310-940-0 (Front bumper garnish). Costs $25.64 at https://www.isuzuparts.com/

My 2001 VX didn't have it and so I just ordered one.

How did I find out about it in the first place?

Looks like it took a hit from something. I don't believe the sun would have done that. I live in the middle of the desert with 100+ degree temps 8 months out of the year and mine is doing just fine.
Maybe when you make a new one you could incorprate some mounts for aux. lights...like the euro ones have!
Like this one...

This VX hasn't been offroad much, and never at speed. So likely heat and humidity together with age. Florida is an official extreme duty environment, and we've got areas set aside all over the place here in the central area where they put out stuff for torture testing.

I found one of them things in the back of my wife's proton when we bought it. I had no idea what it was but now I do. I guess I won't throw it away after all.

Yike! Never, ever throw away VX parts. That's sacrilege!

i have never seen it either, come to think of it. But the metal part that is exposed behind the part that is missing...that I have seen. Methinks I'll v enture over to VX parts. Do you know if I get the front skid plate from japan perfect if it would cover of this par of the front or is this area too high and I would need the replacement anyway?

Looks like a Walmart pimple, or perhaps whiskey bump. A LOT of our work is from the parking lots of Wally World or bars. Funny, no one ever stops and leaves their name and number.

Well, while changing oil this evening I remembered to pull it off and it definitely is some sort of material degradation. My best guess is environmental. But while staring at the empty spot waiting for oil to drain I got some great replacement ideas!
