In a bit of a pickle. I was driving in the rain at 5 am this morning and I hit a puddle (didn't see it) doing 35-40mph. There must have been a good bit of water because it splashed up all around the car. Immediately after, I noticed a noise. A plastic panel (torque shield I believe it is called) was dropping down a bit. After arriving at work, I checked it out a bit closer. It appeared that a bolt had snapped.

What in fact happened is that a bolt or mounting post of some kind ripped out of part of the undercarriage. Luckily it was just one. I have temporarily secured the plastic panel with zip ties to a cross member, but I would like to have this properly fixed asap.

Does anyone know what I could do to repair this? Maybe a similar experience?

Advice appreciated.

where on the car is this? can you take pictures from a little farther back?

 

Those are usually held in with Plastic clips... look for splash shield clips for your car.

That is the link to the part. It is called a torque box shield, and it is located under the passenger side door, roughly between the front and rear door. It is just a cover, and there is one on the right and left side of the car. 

@Krdshrk unfortunately, it is not a plastic clip. The top image is the bolt that separated. That little gray disk on the bolt is where it separated. There are quite a few more holding the shield in, and they are fixed to the undercarriage. The picture with the red circle is where the bolt tore away from the body.

@1LtCAP Not sure if the above helps, but I can take more pictures after work today.
