The cover behind the fridge on the outside of our 2018 179 blew off! Where can I find a replacement?

Saw them on ebay.  Type in the search browser: 'RV dometic refrigerator vent access panel.'  Comes in black or white, different sizes as well as 2 or 4 tabs to connect to your rpod.

When you get a replacement, be sure to always twist the locking fasteners 90 degrees with a coin or screwdriver. The covers should stay in place if they are 'locked in'.

I would suggest that you cover the inside of the vents with screen mesh. Wasps, mud daubbers and other insects love the enclosure if you leave them open.  I have done it with standard aluminum screen wire cut so that 1 piece will cover all of one complete vent panel.I secured the screen at about 2" intervals all around the edges with  a hot melt glue gun.  there are also stainless steel grates available for sale at higher value prices.
