Default Missing screws

Hello,

I'm missing the two screws under the hood:



Could someone make a photo of them, so I'll know how they look like?

Thanks in advance

Nope, you're fine. Those are there and nothing goes in them. They might have been used to align parts during assembly.

Todally wrong! I looked at the picture and thought it was the side of the engine bay. Here's what is there. 2 torx and 2 push pins and a rubber gasket that you are missing.

Yes there should be a torx bolts in that location do not have a part number. They are the same as the ones under the black covers at the front corner of the bumper/fender. There are a total of 4 screws and 2 plastic push pin fasteners across the front. Also you are missing the black rubber seal the goes between the hood and bumper.

Has front end been worked on at one time? or maybe repainted?
