There is no actual part that goes and fills it but you can use a rubber grommet available from home depot, cdn tire, parts source, etc that has that diameter. Most people just weld or bondo it before touching up with paint.

I have heard there is a grommet in the engine bay, that fits the diameter but I haven't confirmed that.

those are to cover the 4 smaller holes but there are 5 because of the harness that is built into the low mount stock spoilers for the 3rd brake light. The 5th hole is about 3x the size of the others there fore you need to pull it from the firewall...(I think)
