Strange noise from unknown location

Every time I go over an incredibly bumpy street there is this strange vibrating noise that follows. I've been trying to figure it out and I can't seem to. At first I thought it was my license plate moving around, but I've secured that, then I thought it was my muffler moving around and that doesn't seem to be the case. I also thought it might be some rubbing between the tires and car but everything looks fine there. any ideas? I can't seem to figure it out

37K miles but it's an American civic in Canada that was bought with a salvage title I don't think the warranty applies anymore lol.

Anyways, I think I found the culprit of the strange noise. It seems as if I'm missing a screw for an inner panel. This is on the bottom of where the door hinges are. On the driver's side it looks to be a black plastic screw. Does anybody know where to get this part. Also somebody please take a picture of their lower front passenger door near the hinge...
