Default Metal Rod Dragging

Hey guys,

Imgur album: http://imgur.com/a/wcnkJ

I was driving on the highway, heard a "clink" sound, followed by a something that sounded like metal dragging on the ground.

Luckily, I was about half a mile away from home, so I cautiously drove her to my garage.

Upon exiting the car, I noticed a thin metal rod hanging from under the car. It looks like it's a part of the car, but I can't seem to find any S2000 undercarriage images out there that have this piece of metal.

For reference, the tire you see in the images is the back right one.

Any ideas or fixes? Please help!

As far as I know, the only mod to the car were exhaust tips.

Possible I ran over something? Hole that it's coming out of in the 2nd pic makes me think it's part of the car :/
