Default Can you help me identify this broken part?

I was zip typing part of the splash guard on the drivers side front and found this. Looks broken but not rust on the broken part. Doesn’t look good. Can tell me what this is? Thanks!

I don’t see anything broken in there. Can you put a circle or a arrow on that part that you think is broken?

Here you go. I circled the areas in yellow. I should have actually checked the other side for a comparison before posting though-noticed it late last night. Thanks for the response!

Actually I looked on the other side and it looks the same except for the yellow circle all the way to the right. I had some irregular tire wear on the outside for the front tire too. What part is this?

That’s the subframe bar and it looks like on all other Lexuses so don’t worry.

Probably just need an alignment. Is the outside wear even or cupped?
