Default Engine splash shield fell off

Does anyone know a good engine splash shield replacement for a 2009 GS350 RWD?

Lexus dealer wants to charge 1k.

Renter was driving my car and I think she hit something and the splash shield broke and fell off and is trying to blame me because she thinks the splash shield was a bad aftermarket because it had a clean yellow piece around a screw on the splash shield.

Does anyone know if that yellow part around the screw is OEM?

Did a real number on that piece, here it is

That clip and screw is OEM these types of clips tend to be yellow or green, also white.

The "clean yellow piece" is OEM. Latest I've gotten are lime green, as in the pic.

May have been a bad assembly, for some reason I think the edges are supposed to be guarded by the fender.

Wow thanks so much, its so much cheaper to buy it and install it myself. Looks easy enough.

I did notice that lexuspartsnow says it wont fit my vehicle and looks different from my splash shield. Attached images of my splash shield.

Thats good to know. They did discover a cracked fender.

Pff, I meant to say bumper, I'm sorry. Anyways - I'd get a 2nd hand one.

Why is the sound insulation on the service hole cover missing? (the thing that you take off to access the oil filter) Can't imagine that they've removed that on the 4GS (edit: I'm drunk, it's a 3GS, there's definitely supposed to be sound deadening on that cover - not a big deal but still)
