Replace the Engine Guard for a 2015 Lexus ES 300h
I recently run over a debris on the road and it tore the engine guard that’s at the bottom of the car under the hood. Where do I find a replacement part and how do I fix it?

Depending on your risk profile, I'd leave it be if it's 90%+ intact and save the money - the only time I advise against it is on VW/Audi platforms where they use a plastic(!!!) oil pan - if I ever got an A6 or an Audi with the plastic pan I'd find the plug hole, drill a hole big enough to access the drain plug and oil filter (bottom only) and then put it back on. Toyotas historically use metal pans which can take one or two hits before it becomes a problem - the exception is dry sump engines like you see on classics like the Shelby Cobra FE blocks, Ferarris and any exotic in general. It's for MPG (and minimal, ineffective protection since they break if you look at them wrong) on wet sump engines
I've run with them removed for years on Toyotas and stuff where the pan is metal without issue. if it's minor and you really want to keep it, ziptie it or cut the bad part off.

I would use the dealer (though I hate that thought for most parts) because these structural parts in the after market can be dodgy.
