Looks like the clutch pedal opening to me.

Most companies leave these things open. They make one mold for a piece which will cover any options. Molds are expensive to make let alone run in a plastics process.

@Twix thanks for the info.. my main concern rather is how the whole compartment down there seems flimsy. it's not intact and hanging loose. so just wanted to confirm if this is the same for all x1s out there

Wish the third pedal was an option here...my manual X5 was a lot of fun.
Maybe in a year or two it can be retro'd

I bet there's a big difference because the OP has RHD...

Gangsta D thanks for the pic. Now that's a good finish and so it is out there. So, is that manual you got there or auto? spydrz So you have the similar finish as Gangsta D? Are you saying that LHD would have similar finish as Gangsta D? Any one with RHD here? I would appreciate if you can tell how mine compares to yours. Thanks

Ha, no worries. We all get bothered by seemingly trivial or random stuff. I hate the amount of orange peel in BMW paint. Most people don't care at all. I'm not bothered by what the underside of the dash looks like, nor the back side of the wheels or the bottom of the seat cushions. But who cares? You are, that's cool.
Just as an aside, I mentioned three ostensibly British cars, or at least natively RHD, I bet they really would have cleaner footwells for you. |

It is normal. Most BMWS are like that. And for the record, most cars have MUCH less (sometimes no) covering down there, leaving wiring harnesses and other things in plain sight.
