Default Lower molding question

I'm not sure, but I believe parts of the lower molding are missing on my 2001 b5. On the driver's side near the rear wheel is a clip-like thing (see picture). On the passenger side there is nothing there except paint. It's kind of weird. Could somebody tell me what goes there and where I can get it? I replaced all the door moldings a few months ago with OEM parts from ECS Tuning, but I noticed this before I did it.
Driver's side:

Yes, there should be a little square of black molding there. Judgeing the fact the the one side is missing the mounting hardware it was hit/some damage they had fix and 1/2 assed it and didn't put it all back. The hard part is going to be #1 finding that hardware and #2 finding JUST the squares, I checked our computers and I'm not even sure if we can get JUST the square with out buying the back doors...

Unfortunately, I just have junkyards (probably filled with nothing but minivans and ricers). I'll give them a shot though. If not I guess I'll try Shokan -- although they'll probably charge an arm and a leg for it.

But now that I think about it, I'm probably better off taking the clip off and painting over the spot to match the other side when I fix the spider cracks on my bumper. It doesn't look too bad without the square.
