Rear Bumper Retaining Studs

Hello all. I'm searching for a rear bumper. I found one online that is exactly what I need except there is a note saying : *4 RETAINING STUDS BROKE*
Is this something that can't be fixed? is this a big deal? Any help would be appreciated

I believe its 4 of the smaller screws on the sides of the trunk that he means as these are impossible to take off with out snapping the bolt. Is it necessary? its up to you, i know you can order the rail with new studs fairly cheap but as long as you can get the main bolts on the back and in the wheel wells you should be fine. Also i highly recommend having a friend help you line up the bumper, its very unwieldy and hard to line up, and trying by myself i got a couple good scratches so watch out.
