    I ran into something on the freeway and did the damage in the attached image. It seems super easy to replace, but I am having a hard time figuring out which part to order. I ordered Prius Engine Splash Shield Center, but it wasn't the right part. I am about to order "2007 Toyota Prius - Front, Lower Valance Cover Spoiler, Textured" but I want to make sure that this is the correct part, and this is the only part I need.

    I can't post links to the parts, as I don't have enough membership clout yet, but I can probably post them in the comments if anyone needs them.

    The car is a 2007 Prius.

    Can anyone point me in the right direction? Let me know if you need pics from different angles.

    Thanks!

    I just had this happen on my 2010 (Gen3) Prius. Depending on the website (even among those selling the genuine OEM part!), the part may be called the front valence, the front spoiler cover, or simply the front spoiler. You've probably fixed it by now, but I thought I'd respond anyway, in case you haven't, & for the benefit of others.

    On the 2010 Prius, the OEM part is 76851-47030. The 2010 is Gen3, but I don't know whether this part # is unique to 2010, or whether the identical part # was used for any of the other Gen 3 model yrs, too (Gen3 = 2010 - 2015).

    Our 2007 Prius base first had the valence damaged driving in snow and ice a winter or two ago. After getting a replacement radiator and condenser, the valence was held on with zip ties. I had to get an inspection and asked the mechanic to remove what was left of the valence. What risk do I run from driving without this part?
