Abstract: An assembly for mounting a parking aid sensor to an automobile bumper. The assembly may include a sensor housing including an internal structure configured to secure the parking aid sensor and an external structure configured to secure the sensor housing in an opening in the automobile bumper. A fascia may be mounted to or integrated with the sensor housing and disposable against the automobile bumper. The fascia may be formed of a non-opaque material for enabling a color or background of the automobile bumper to be visible through the fascia to enable the assembly to be used with a plurality of automobile bumpers of different colors or backgrounds.

Abstract: A bumper assembly for a motor vehicle includes a bumper structure having a bumper beam adapted for attachment to a structure of a motor vehicle such as a frame or rails, or the like. A hitch is attached to the bumper beam, and a bumper cover conceals the bumper beam. The bumper cover has an opening for accessing the hitch and an access door for selectively concealing the hitch. The access door is mounted to the bumper structure such that the access door will be retained upon the bumper structure not only when the access door is concealing the hitch but also when the access door is open to allow an accessory such as a trailer to be coupled to the hitch.
