The hole is quite a bit larger than the plug on the FRS. You could get by without it, but looks a lot better if you do drill it. I almost left mine off and painted the insides of the bumper showing through the hole black, but ended up drilling it instead.

Actually it looks like it could be an issue, if you get water in there it could mildew and mold overtime with the foam behind the bumper that is exposed!

The car is constantly exposed to humidity/water/rain. Dont worry about it.

I'm not really worried about it. It's a FR-S not a 458.

I ordered mine through the local dealer. Took 1 day to receive it, but then again Toyota's HQ is only 5 minutes away. Each color has a different part number since they come prepainted.

Btw, I made a DIY for this. http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showthread.php?t=15922
