I am missing my drivers side air duck or air dam that is located in the front of the M-Sport bumper. It lets air through to the wheels, its a plastic tube and im not sure how to find it. I have attached a pic of the right side and the missing left side.

The side that has the air duck

I didn't know our bumpers "quack"?

Anyway, your DUCT is probably still there. They tend to get knocked loose but don't fall off the car. If you'll notice underneath the front of the car, there is a plastic tray that covers the entire bottom. If you take the tray off, you may find your "duck" somewhere in there. That is unless someone previously AFLAC-ed it.

Truthfully,

I spot my duct immediately when it becomes unfastened. It's irregularly shaped and should remain within the general area unless you do some crazy turns at high rates of speed. Even so it still should not get lost. I currently don't even have my belly pan cover on mentioned in the above post and it still was there. Just stick your hand in the duct and search for it. (that is.. if it's still there.) Can't imagine it wouldn't be. You'll have more success and a larger viewing area if you pop out the solid piece of closed mesh at the very edge. GL
