No holes. Nothing looks like something is missing. It was superglued to the clear piece that was put back in. There were no clips just clear glue. Ghetto.

You can get those gayfuck foglight accents off by just taking the housing off and unscrewing them from the back (2 screws in each) I did mine today and am going to paint them and all my badges tomorrow.

I would have liked to see some contrast in there. The black took the intricacy out of the headlights.
