Help Identifying Part

Hello,

I just recently made a cross county drive (E to W) and while driving through Nevada I drove over a dead coyote/wolf. While the front of the car avoided damage, towards the middle section it caught a piece of metal (deflector, stabilizer?) that protected the exhaust and pretty much destroyed it. I need a hand identifying it so that I can get a replacement. I tried googleing it, but without a name for the part its rather hard to determine. There are two similar pieces, this one is the rear most one. I included a pic (excuse the mess, need to power was the bottom... car still smells like roasting dog).


Thanks for the help

I can't see pics, but I'm going to guess that you're talking about the heat shield?
if so, you don't need it.

It will be one of the following, depends if its the trans cross brace, or the tunnel brace that was damaged.

Tunnel Cross Memeber: F151-56-H20B

Trans Cross member:F152-56-H10

Carbon8: Arent there 2 tunnel cross members that are centered around the rear resonator on the catalytic? Puppet623 is looking for that rear tunnel cross member thats closer to the rear catalytic flange.
