Default Part fell off my front bumper!

Ok, quick question... I have an '04 Z Roadster and I was driving along and hit something (no idea what it was), it sounded bad so I pulled over, I didn't see any immediate damage, as this happened at night. But when I came to wash my car a week or so later I thought to myself I could have sworn that their was a Black plastic looking air dam/spoiler thing on the bottom of my bumper... that was no longer there. I have looked on the Nissan parts website to see if I can find a replacement but I see no part number for it? and it's not in the picture, It was a couple of inches in depth and spanned the whole front of the bumper.

Does anyone know what the part number is for this item? Does anyone even know what i'm talking about lol.

Thanks

I have had parts of my oem undershroud drag and it sounds horrible. I doubt the whole thing just fell off from hitting something.

O picture of what he means would go a long way to ending the guessing game.

Default Hmmm, I found an image of what it looks like

Thanks for the fast response, but it's not that, that's the under engine shroud, and it's not part of that, I already checked. That part is still intact, and doesn't appear to have any part of it snapped off, although I must admit it would be logical for it to be built into it. See the image below (this is not my front bumper, just using the pic to illustrate the part I am referring to)

Default Bingo!

That's the one! thank you so much.

I can't believe they want that much for it, dang. 226 notes sheesh.

I have a contact at a dealer I might be able to shave 40 off the price, but still!!!

Thanks again

This part is useless.
It was part of the "AERO" package that included the small rear spoiler and
splash guards.When I bought my 03 Touring,I looked for the front aerodynamic
spoiler that was included in the package.I could not beieve this little plastic
strip could be called a spoiler.
Save your money.Leave it of.For the money saved,you could use it towards a
front lip.

Default Useless indeed!

Yeah, it might be useless, but... it finishes off the look of the front end, without it at certain angles you can see a slight gap between where the lower engine shroud connects to the bumper, it just irks me to see it looking untidy. Thanks for your input though.
