Went offroading

I didn't do it on purpose! I was on a wet road and overcorrected when the car started drifting. I now have many scratches on the front bumper. The problem is that the faux fog light lens is busted. A couple questions for those in the know:

1.) Can I replace just the lens or does the whole light assembly need to be replaced?

2.) What is the "official" name for it?

3.) Can I fix it myself or does the bumper have to come off?

I also slashed the sidewall of my tire and had to replace that too. Good times!

I'm guessing your talking about the foglight housing.
you need to replace the whole housing...you can get it at any acura dealership. They might have to order it. Its fairly cheap like ~$20. Mine broke with a rock...and had to replace it. It takes 5 minutes to replace and is easy. No need to remove the bumper...just in there by like 3 screws. Someone chime in with more details...its been awhile since I replaced mine.
Be thankful you don't have 3G TL theirs cost like $200 to replace because they are glass.
