It's hard to describe:
"curved vertical piece of plastic (plate), left and right, underside front, not sure of the function, held with screws, is broken and gets caught on the tires!"
I'm I sorry I can't describe it any better. Can someone
help me identify this part/number/pics. I'm not a DIY person! Oops, its for
my Mini Sue 2003. Thank you.

 

is it in the wheel well and acts as a guard

 

You might go to Pelican Parts and search. It might be part of the lower front bumper spoiler you refer to--

It is in the wheel well & I'm not having a lot of luck identifying
the part at Pelicans.

 

Is it somewhere on this page:

Thank you, but I cannot identify it in this diagram.

 

Click through that website to look for it. Your description is very vague. Where is the exact location? If you post a picture, someone can probably identify it quickly.
