My mustang was in a collision while my brother borrowed it. We have to replace the hole front bumper assembly as well as the core support. we've spot welded back in the core support but ran into a problem because the studs that mount on the new-used bumper cover and completely gone or broken. im wondering what other people have done about this. thanks for any help

Drill out whats left of the studs and just use nuts and bolts.

It's only an inch or two. What's the big deal?

What about the 3 studs by each light assembly? I'd have to look again but I don't think they're accessible even with the lights out
