3. I'm pretty sure the bumper has to be replaced, there's literally a hole in it (look in the first pic). I only mentioned a kit because I figured it might be cheaper than a new OEM bumper.

4. prnstr40, you really have no idea about any of the details of the situation. I could go into detail to explain, but I'd rather not waste my time.
