96-99 R50 front bumper ends

Hey y'all.  I've got a 98 SE with chrome bumper accents and the front chrome ends have acquired a decent amount of rust over its previous life in the northeast.  I've been waiting for something to pop up at my local pick-a-parts but it seems most of the inventory over the last 6 months has either been 00 to 04 r50s, or been the non-chrome versions.  Tired of waiting, I went to see what I could grab from the internet.  Looking around I see a couple of places have them, but for my model with fender flares, I've been only able to grab the right one.  (found it decently priced on rockauto here: https://www.rockauto.com/en/moreinfo.php?pk=700842&cc=1316833&pt=15198&jsn=910)

 

My question is this:  I've not found the flared version for the other side online and in-stock anywhere (part# NI1005140 OEM F20250W486), but it seems like the only difference between the fender flare in the non-fender flare version is a small hole in the end to snap the flare onto.  The non-flared version is available on rockauto, so I'm wondering if I can get that and then just drill a hole. https://www.rockauto.com/en/moreinfo.php?pk=700828&cc=1316833&pt=15198&jsn=909

 

Does any know if the hole is the only difference, or are there any dimension or part differences as well?  OR does anyone of a line on a place that's selling the left one?

Update: I found the drivers side part with the flare hole on ebay.  ihttps://www.ebay.com/itm/185147885526?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=nLfobrrwTwy&sssrc=2047675&ssuid=4yHEB6iNRXG&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY

 

It looks like ebay only has the driver side and rockauto only the passenger (with flare holes), so maybe it'll work out lol.  I ordered the rockauto drivers side without flare holes too before I found this so I'll let you know if its the same other than lack of fender hole when I get it (before I return)
