It's called a "tow eye cap" and you can get it for about 3 bucks (though I think it's unpainted) from toyotapartscheap.com:

http://www.trademotion.com/parts/200...ow%20eye%20cap

That search is for the 2008 HB, don't know what model yours is but you can find it there.

Hmmm, this is odd.
I lost my tow hook cover a little over a week ago. Mine is meteorite metallic HB. Looked at that website to find a replacement (local dealer wants $15 for an unpainted one, and another $20 to paint it to match). Either they want to charge exorbitant prices ($9) for a year newer car (2009) as opposed to the 2008 pricing for that piece, or something... Doesn't make sense to me.

And why is it that the ones for the sedan come pre-painted, but not for the HB??

Anyone have any other suggestions for getting that replacement part in the right color for the HB, or a decorative tow hook suggestion?
