Default Anyone who has painted the front bumper support

Did you have rivets in your nose piece holding it to the grayish bumper support? I have two rivets in the center, one on the passenger side and none under the connector on the driver's side.

No, but that may be courtesy of SLP. Your nose piece has been modified by SLP to align with the hood.

Looking at the hole for the plastic pin, I'd say you'd be safe drilling out the small metal rivits, and not worry about how things line up.

SLP more than likey puts the rivits in to make sure the nose does not move and aligns with their hood. One could always replace the rivits too.

Yup, a little hand-rivet gun (hand powered) is cheap, and so are the rivets.

Drill em and replace them later.

Mine had it. It's a Firehawk thing I drilled it out, then replaced it with a screw when I put it back together.

Here's a pic of my engine bay showing the painted support:
