Plastic piece above club head cracked - see picture

So the other day I noticed this piece is cracked, and sometimes moves up and down the shaft.  I'm not sure exactly what it is called, but it is the plastic piece at the top of the club head.

Is this going to be an issue?  Or will it not have any impact?  I tried to look it up but I can't find any info on it.

That part is called a ferrule.  The ferrule is purely cosmetic to make the transition from the club head's hosel to the shaft a smooth transition.  Its attached with epoxy.  Just be careful that little piece is moving and the shaft is not slipping in and out of the club head.  I doubt it since you said the ferrule is cracked, it probably just that.

Thanks guys, I just wanted to make sure it wasn't something bad, I dont really worry about the cosmetic stuff too much, so I'm just going to leave it alone.

Yep.
