Joy, According to ETKA, the end piece for the fiberglas bumper is called
a "Protective End" (not bumper end cap). The bracket that holds it to the
rear side corner panel of the vehicle is called a "Retainer".

Part numbers for these items:
Protective End (right side): 255 807 324 A
Retainer: 255 807 347
