Angry Dang you jackrabbit!

Well I regret to report on my way home a couple of nights ago a mutant rabbbit ran out in front of me while I was going 55-60 mph. Anyway, it cracked the lower portion of my front bumper and destroyed the plastic piece that runs under the bumper that funnels air up and I assume helps protect the radiator from road debris. So, I need someone to please tell me what the name of that plastic piece so I can order another.
Thanks in advance and everone do yourself a favor and watch out for suicidal jackrabbits.

I thought the op meant the front lip. Anyway, it would be easier to answer if the op provided pictures.

Mazda calls this part " COVER,UNDER"

Mazmart knows the part number, so I'm not gonna bother

Be sure to get extra plastic mounting clips.

forgot to add, this is one of the reason why I think a plastic tray is better than a metal tray. probably the only time I think plastic is better than metal.

if this tray is made from metal with all metal bolts, oh boy, the damage will be ... ugly.
