Just installed my JCW front splitter and noticed that I seem to be missing a splash shield on the driver's side. I looked back at a pic taken when the car was new and it looks like it was never there despite having mounting holes for it and a matching one on the passenger side.

You can see the shield that goes from the front lip back towards the passenger wheel. It looks like there should be one on the drivers side just to the right of the trans in the photo, but I guess mine never had anything there.

Does anyone else have one on the driver's side or is this a standard MINI thing?

 

Mine had one for about a month of ownership. When I hit my first decent pothole, it was ripped off.

 

The Belly Pan thread (https://www.northamericanmotoring.co...belly-pan.html) only talks about there being a splash guard on the passenger side.

 

Yep only on the passenger side.
