I disagree.

I would do what Kaiba said and plug that hole towards the drivers side. The FPR(Fuel Pressure Regulator) should mount on the top side, which I have circled in Red the following picture.

^^^^hes right. you just plug that hole with a plug. as for the scratches, try using mothers polish. not sure if will make them disappear completely, but is should make it really clean and shiny.

I know its off-topic, but i simply dont understand why people upgrade their fuel rails UNLESS its for looks. I guarantee my car has a higher fuel demand than yours and i'm still rocking the stock rail...just a thought
