Plastic piece under front bumper--Gone!

I went into an arroyo after a storm at a somewhat high speed. BIG bang, but the car seemed ok, so I kept going. Later I noticed a plastic piece hanging from the front bumper. It is now off. There was a long narrow piece that fit under the front bumper and a second flat piece that (I think) was up under the engine.

1: what was this? 2: was it important? 3 Is it expensive to fix?

Meanwhile, my dad helped me put freon in the AC, as I didn't think it was working very well. (Same day as that plastic part came out from underneath). A/C seemed worse the next time I drove, and now it blows hot air!

Likely unrelated, but...??? I live on a dirt road and it's possible that the AC got clogged with dust? Or? A bit baffled.
