Plastic piece missing on a front diffuser?
I put my car on a jack today so that I could see some details under the car. When I was looking at the front diffuser, I found a slightly loose plastic piece on a passenger side front wheel well. I could see through the oil cooler and the intercooler pipe. So, I went and checked the driver side, but everything was fine there. I took some picts, and would like to ask if you guys can go take a look at your cars and compare.
(passenger side: There's a small gap on the plastic piece where you can see the oil cooler and the intercooler pipe. Also, I could feel the brake duct is a little loose.)
(driver side: There's no loose pieces or any gap here.)
Thanks a lot, and sorry for the poor grammar.
(edit: BTW, you can locate these plastic pieces by looking under your front bumper.)

i cant tell for sure b/c your pictures are too zoomed in, but it does indeed look like you are missing the small passenger side piece of the splashgaurd. there should be 3 peices altogether, one small one on the passenger side, one small one inset into the center, and one large one covering the center and driver side. if you can see the intercooler from under the car, then theres a piece missing. the only opening under the car should be for acess to the the oil plug and oil filter.
