Default Camaro with rs body kit

I've found a badass deal on a 99 z28 but it has a rs body kit installed.

I really don't like the way it looks on the car and I would like to know if when I remove it are there going to be holes, or clips showing?

From what I understand there will probably be quite a few holes left behind all along the side rocker panels.
