Default Front bumper problems

So i had to replace my bumper, kinda rushed into buying one, and didn't notice i ordered the wrong one with headlamp washers so now my new bumper has 2 small slits or holes below the light, It will cost me way to much to ship back, I'm wondering can a bodyshop fix this before I get it painted or not im out 300-400$. and im not really tryna drive with 2 slits or holes for headlamp washers that my car didnt come with. Idea on body work/ covering the holes. heres the pic. I'm thinking the body shop can fix that before they paint it , also i wana get my grill and emblem painted as well since i painting the whole bumper.

you have to options,

1. a good body shop can have those holes filled without an issue. (make sure they dont use bondo).

2. buy the covers and have them painted and have them epoxy on from the back side so they dont come off.
