Default plastic piece from underneath

I was just driving down the interstate. Hit a high rate of speed and a large flat piece of plastic flew out from under me and a car a good ways back ended up running over it. I'm guessing it was mounted just below the engine?? Anyone able to enlighten me as to what I just lost?

You want to get a new one. If you don't. At high speeds your hood is gonna shake like it's about to fly off

Mine has been missing since I have owned it (2 yrs). Never noticed the hood shake. How much for a new one?

Yeah I lost mine and didn't think it was a biggie either......Other than the hoodshake I was making a pull on a SRT Charger and the entire inner fender liner flew out too..... Due to the clips from one of these pieces connect to the other. You'll wanna get it fixed before you start losing other stuff. There's a thread under my name about "**** starting to fly off my car" LMAO. TRUE STORY
