135i M-tech Package with 1m Style Replica Bumper - DANGEROUS

Whats up guys. So I know there is a bunch of threads to these 1m bumpers for e82, but I cant find any of them addressing the obvious problems these have.

Most of the vendors sell the bumper with the fog light holes to place the lights on them. This is a huge problem for those of us who need this duct clear to cool the brakes and oil. I bought mine thinking that this plastic can be removed, and I was wrong.

I want to know what are the 135i owners like me doing for this. Placing fog lights in that location is a terrible idea and dangerous as it covers the air path for the oil/brake cooling. Is there any DIY to remove this plastic? Please help on this issue for the fitment to be perfect but safe.

Also, an issue that has been addressed is the healight washers, but no one is doing a DIY on how to make this. I will probably drill the holes myself, but does anyone know the right placement for these?
