Part name(between windshield and hood)???

I had my windshield replaced today and they cut the heck out of the "plastic vented guard thing". I don't know what the part is called but it fits around the wiper arms and keeps leaves out from under the hood. It is the piece between the windshield and the hood.

What is this part called?

Thanks

It's called a "Water Deflector". That's what it's listed as anyways! And it comes in 2 parts - left half and right half which are slightly different if you look under the bonnet.

I would call the shop that did that work ASAP...if you had an ins claim...Call them and tell them that. Your car should be the the same state as they came to do the work. Have them get the part directly from the dealer and correct that issue NOW! Thats bull and you should have to pay that bill
