Default washer nozzle on carbon fiber hood

I have a vis carbon fiber hood and it has the predrilled washer nozzle holes. I've never filled the hole. I just got to lazy. I guess when I bought the hood and the body shop installed it they didn't install the washer nozzle. I would just leave it off but I don't like the idea of water going into my engine when it rains. Well today I decide to go buy some at a junk yard and when I tried to put it in, I noticed the washer nozzle were too big. I wonder if I have to drill the hole a little bigger to fit or if somehow I got big washer nozzles. Anyone have a similar experience ?

ok thanks for the replies. I just wish I had a drill or dremel. I wonder how much a body shop would charge for that
