Best place to buy a new engine splash shield?

I had done every single oil change on my Mazda5 with Mobil 1 synthetic. My wife decided to help by taking the Mazda to Wal-Mart for an oil change, without my knowledge (she drives it, I drive something else). They threw away the splash shield rather than try to figure out how to put it back. Bastards.

This was ten weeks ago, just found out that Wal-Mart did a change and immediately looked. Gone. I did a new change right away, put Mobil 1 synthetic back into it (new filter too of course).

Anyway, back to my question, where is the best / cheapest place to buy a new splash shield? Do the clips / screws come with it? Any chance that this place has free shipping with a minimum order? I could use some new oil filters.

Thanks!

Holy cow, price = $143 plus about $20 in clips / screws. All because my wife decided to "do me a favor" and take the car to get an oil change... at Wal-Mart. Crazy. And I'd love to go to a junkyard and pick the part off, but the only junkyard around me charges prices that approach MSRP, certainly no "pick and pull" places around here.

edit: found something:

After-market, but $30. I would still need the fasteners from the dealer, about $25 or $30 MSRP for each of them. Damn Wal-Mart.

edit #2: the review says it is really flimsy and doesn't fit - I think I will keep looking.

This one includes hardware and free 2-day shipping if you have Prime (or know someone who has it):

If it doesn't fit well or it's of poor quality, you can return it for free with no return shipping costs. Just select the "Performance or quality not adequate" reason when returning.
 
Don't blame your wife for the incompetence and idiocy of everything Mall-Wart. Good-hearted people falling for the Mall-Wart scam is how they've grown into world domination.

I would go there and make peoples' lives utter hell until they replaced my discarded car parts. The sheer arrogance of a worthless sack of sh*t at that place just throwing the shield away makes my blood boil. I cannot wait for the day that the place is dead and gone. It's the scourge of America.
