Assuming you are talking about the side reflectors in the front right and left portion of the (below the headlight) of the front bumper?

IND and others sell custom paint matching reflectors so they match the paint color. Easiest and cheapest way.

Yeah, that's an aftermarket front bumper; they usually run $400-500 primed black from a reputable company.

I mean, I guess if you want to spend ~$1300 instead of ~$150 when it's all said and done just to replace a 1x5" hole, you do you.

The side marker reflectors are required only in the US.

The E9X bumpers without side marker reflectors are Euro spec bumpers.
