Default Damage to rear light chrome-effect surround

Unfortunately on a trip to the supermarket my wife reversed into a bollard. Thankfully she was going pretty slowly and the main damage is to the small plastic chrome-effect surround around the rear fog light.

I can live with the very small dent in the metal part underneath but hate seeing the crack in the chrome cover. Anyone know if this is straight forward to sort out (or what this part is called)? I'm wondering if its something I could order through the dealer / 3rd party and fit myself?

Thanks.

I'll ping the original dealer to see if they can source a part directly as the eBay ones seem international.

There is a place in the North West that is breaking about 60 ex Volvo development cars so they might be able to help you.

BTW that is not a fog light but just a simple reflector.

Thanks - I don't suppose you have any more info? I've tried searching but not sure I'm finding the right one.

Thanks - I did wonder myself why I saw it being referred to as the rear fog light when I've never seen it 'on' before.
