This fell off. Is it important?

    So a piece of the black plastic underskirt came loose on the freeway and before I could find a safe place to stop, it fell off. As it flew into the car behind me it looked a lot bigger than the space it left behind that I can see underneath. Or is something else missing from this picture?

    1. Either way, how important/urgent is it to replace?
    2. What's the part number or description? 20171025_121859.jpg

    I would replace it: It's number 9 here:

    Fender & Components for 2014 Toyota Prius | Toyota Parts

    Currently out of stock there, but you can search for the part number:

    53876-47070

    There's a plethora of fasteners, check: some of them might have stayed with the car, and you can also compare to the other side.

    Thanks! Is the passenger side left or right in the USA?

    passenger sitting on your lap = left
    passenger sitting in passenger seat = right

    That's a right side. Sitting in the car, it's to your right.

    Did you catch my typo, that it is in fact part no:

    53875-47030

    I gather you did, with your question. Good catch.
