The part under the engine hood is called the rear valance, it consists of an inner and an outer part. The part mentioned here is the outer part which is largely hidden behind the bumper. If you remove the old panel by drilling the spot welds, it will not be visible that the rear valence has been replaced, this is the right way to restore.
