Help please... Need advice quickly, purchasing today

So I had a roush front chin splitter on my car.. For anyone that has ever installed this it's a bit ridiculous. You have to modify your factory splitter to wrap the roush version and then sandwich all of them between this.. other black plastic piece which I can't think of the name.

Last night I had to park my car in a field for a friend's birthday, on departing said field there was a massive dip that I could not see and my car fell into it and ripped out the front part of the splitter, bent / broke it, popped my bumper out and the black plastic piece under the car is shredded now from getting it home.

Now that the factory splitter, the roush splitter, and the big huge flat plastic piece under the car is all fubar. I need another chin splitter (that doesn't require the factory splitter for install) and I need to know what the heck that massive black plastic piece under the front of the car is called and where to get one.

Anyone have any suggestions for a chin splitter that's not 800+ like on american muscle and where I can order that other piece I've mentioned? I would like to order it today so I can get it shipped asap and remedy my wounded red pride and joy.

Thank you

RTR seemed to have installation issues from reviews with fitment and other various things so I'm a little apprehensive about that for now. I don't know what stillen is. I'd like to keep the splitter cost below $450. And I still need to know what that big black plastic piece is that goes under the engine and where to get that.

Edit: I would go out the car and look at the manual for parts list, but I'm currently trapped in the bathroom with my porcelain buddy.. rough night after I injured my car.

Hi, I'm probably a bit late but I thought I would throw another option at you. I have a Roush but if I didn't and was looking to be different I would look at one of these;

I like them but I guess everyone has their own tastes.

Awesome. He is a member here, but I forgot his screen name. I follow him on Instagram though, so this is what you have to look forward to when/if you get it painted!
