My front bumper looks similarly damaged underneath (and almost in the exact same spot), though not ripped enough so it shows from the front, just underneath.
Possibly a body shop could do a repair of the plastic with epoxy.

I drove over a parking bumper/stop made of concrete...rebar was sticking up. When I backed up to leave, the rebar caught the underside edge of bumper and ripped it open.

Most likely a common occurrence on these cars, as they have just 4.9 inches of ground clearance...and very difficult to tell, from the driver's seat, just exactly where the front of the car is...when pulling up to a parking bumper. Wish these cars had a camera at the front of the car.

Attached pic of a similar parking lot bumper...
