    No, but they are supposed to add some plastic caps over some holes.

    Yes, most techs remove the front wheels, you also remove most plastic caps on the frame.

    You drill holes for the new covers for the frame channel.

    The spare tire is supposed to be dropped during the inspection to check for rust.
