front lower air dam is gone!

Hit a big (unmarked) bump last night in a construction zone and the little air dam in the middle of the bottom of my front bumper fell off...I did not even notice it until this morning

Has this happened to anyone else?

Where can I get a replacement cheep?

What about filling it all in with chrome mesh?

Yes, I have lost mine twice and I have not replaced it for the third time. Not sure what I'll do, but it does not seem to have a very secure mounting mechanism. It cost about $290 if memory serves me correct and it needs to be painted to match your car.

Not sure where to find a cheap one.
